Macedonian literature presented at Frankfurt Book Fair


Macedonian contemporary literature, ways for cooperation with foreign partners and promotion of Macedonia as a modern cultural and literary environment will be presented at the 2018 Frankfurt Book Fair, held on Oct. 10-14.

The Ministry of Culture for the first time this year will act as commissary for national presentation.

Activities are designed to make sure Macedonian writers and their works are better promoted internationally, in the long run, according to the Ministry of Culture.

Macedonia will have its own stand at the fair to promote editions from Macedonian publishing companies, monographs about Macedonia, its cultural heritage, as well as translated books.

On October 13, an event will be organized as part of the fair in which writers from Macedonia from different generations writing different types of fiction will be promoted, alongside the call for foreign publishers, issued by the Ministry of Culture since 2013.

Minister of Culture Asaf Ademi will visit the Frankfurt Book Fair, it has been announced.

Macedonia will be also presented at the Tirana Book Fair in November and will be the country in focus at the Pula Book Fair.
