Up to 200 new Georgian editions to be displayed at London Book Fair

A Georgian national stand with up to 200 new book editions, the latest foreign language translations, and catalogues of Georgian publishers will be showcased next month at London Book Fair. 

Literature enthusiasts will also be able to gain insight into the latest research on the Georgian book market at the stand, Writers’ House of Georgia announced on Tuesday. 

Organised by the literature institution along with the Georgian Publishers and Booksellers Association, the national stand will also present works by Georgian illustrators Giorgi Gagoshidze, Sonia Eliashvili, Giorgi Jincharadze and Teona Chanishvili in support of Ukraine against the Russian invasion. 

This way, the organisers of the Georgian stand and the Georgian publishers will once again express their full support to the Ukrainian people,”
