Kuwait Book Fair 2008

November 22, 2008

So i went to Kuwait Book Fair 2008 , as every year

Of course there is always talks about Book Butchery , and that because of that only Children , Cooking and religious books are in there these days

While there was certainly an abundance of these type of books , you can find interesting books if you want

One thing some people never think of

That’s what most people in Kuwait want to buy these days , it may sound shocking to some , but really , a visit to the Book Fair and you notice that , sections with Children , Cooking & religious Books are full of buyers and onlookers , while Sections with Political & history books are empty with no one even checking them out

I want to give a big shout out to Diamond Books , while i don’t read any of their books anymore ( for other reasons ) they are going the extra mile to sell their books

Diamon Books

Well i got some Historical Books , as the saying goes
Don’t Know Your Future if You Don’t Know Your Past

like

    oh and if you were wondering about Syria

    In 2006 they had a smaller picture of our shiek than Their President
    In 2007 They didn’t have any picture of our Shiek at all

    Well , come 2008 and …

    Syria

    No picture ! yay !!

    but my happiness was short lived

    7. I didn’t think of it at the time, but Diamond books is the only one investing in a brand.
