Recently i visited 47 th year of book fair in Chennai conduct by BAPASI
It is that time of the year when the training grounds of YMCA Nandanam metamorphose into a giant bookshop teeming with life. The annual Chennai Book Fair is here
There is a sense of palpable excitement when one stands at the counter to purchase the ₹10 entry ticket to the Chennai Book Fair. Every year, this queue constitutes children in colourful clothes clutching the hands of their parents. There are teenagers who anticipate a shy and quiet time among books, and adults, young and old, boisterous and timid, mustering the courage to walk through nearly 900 stalls to buy just enough. There are budgets to think of, authors to meet, and conversations to be had about books and everything that constitutes life.
Adjectives like ‘biggest’ and ‘largest’ are hence not hyperbolic while referring to the Chennai Book Fair. Every year for the last 47 editions, the Booksellers and Publishers Association of South India (BAPASI) has been facilitating this congregation of readers, writers and publishers alike to ensure that everyone loses themselves in words - written, spoken and shared.
This year, the book fair will take place from January 3 to January 21 between 2pm and 8.30pm on weekdays and 11.30am and 8.30pm on weekends. As custom dictates, there will be a 10% discount at all the stalls upon purchase.
