The Amar Ekushe Book Fair has been gathering momentum since its inauguration. 78 new books arrived on Thursday (February 22). Young readers throng the fair every day to buy their favorite books. Older readers also seek out books by their favorite authors. And children look for books published for them.
About new books, young writer Nawab Abdur Rahim said, all kinds of new books come in the fair every day. But the quality of many books is questionable. Publishers have the greatest responsibility here. They think more about the business side than the quality of the book.
He said, we should move away from there and look at the quality of books. It has to be said that quality books are also coming out.
