Taslima’s books must be shunned—raising questions about freedom of expression and the very role of the Boi Mela
In a statement, the chief adviser denounced the violence, emphasising that it goes against the open-minded spirit of the book fair, which honours the language martyrs of February 21, 1952, according to the CA's press wing
The stall was forced to shut down in front of the crowd. No news of harm or injury has been reported yet
With only a few days left before the month-long Amar Ekushey Boi Mela (Amar Ekushey Book Fair) kicks off, many stars are preparing to release their new books. As is tradition, the fair will see a range of exciting new titles from some of Bangladesh’s most beloved celebrities.
A bittersweet farewell unfolded at Suhrawardy Udyan and Bangla Academy yesterday as the curtains fell on the 2024 Amar Ekushey Boi Mela. Hundreds of bookworms thronged the fairgrounds, a sight that has become synonymous with the month of February in Dhaka.
The plot sheds light on a privileged modern experience where time stands still, stopping the clock as the days and nights roll and go.
Uncertainty looms over holding the next edition of Amar Ekushey Boi Mela at Suhrawardy Udyan, as the government has decided to take over the ground for construction of a “cultural zone” called Sonar Bangla Sangskritik Boloy.
Most publishing companies in Bangladesh are not big enough for them to have a fully functioning marketing team or a viable marketing strategy.
According to the publishers, the classic horror books are among their best selling novels this year.

For most of the publishers, pavilion planning commenced as early as mid January and the organisers left no stone unturned in terms of planning the layout.
