“A book is a bee that collects honey from the beautiful minds of others and brings it to the reader.” The “book” can be called the enlightened child of the brain. Just as light removes the darkness of worldly order and clarifies everything, a good book brings the light of knowledge to the human mind and removes all darkness and illuminates everything in the light of pure consciousness.
The only book that can spread the message of knowledge beyond the limits of time. Books can be the best resource to bring order to chaotic life, to calm the depressed mind, education, entertainment, loneliness. The immortal words of the Persian poet Omar Khayyam come to mind in the context of the book’s timeless appeal:
‘The bread and wine will run out / Priya’s black eyes will cloud, / But the book, she is eternal youth!’
Book lovers rushed to the book fair without knowing it. Each stall becomes a front yard, in which readers are invited. Some find the depth of the subject by dipping their face into the cover of the book, some go back to the golden past by looking at a couple of pages, some look for the much desired book for a beautiful future as gem divers. Each post became a beautiful realm of writers, readers, and editors in excitement, joy, pain, estrangement, love. A great advantage for the reader is that books from leading authors and publishers are available at the book fair. Even his interviews or autographs are available, which is hard to match at other times.
The book fair is not just about imparting knowledge, people here are immersed in peace with their loved ones. The new generation wakes up with the desire to acquire knowledge and love for books. The presence of readers of all ages, from young readers to young and old, builds a different kind of harmony in the Bengali nation. Many foreign writers also attended the Amar Ekushey Book Fair. This book fair is also a source of strengthening the bond of friendship. A friend or family member you meet or speak with in Kalevadra may also find themselves in a clean environment at the book fair. The bond of the heart is strong. That is why the book fair can also be called a meeting fair.
The Bangladeshi publishing industry mainly revolves around book fairs. Many new writers are emerging inspired by the book fair. Literary content and genre innovation are emerging in the writing of new writers. In the information and technology age, it is believed that young writers will take the place of the dignity of the Bengali nation with the conviction of patriotism creating innovation.
Diversity has come to the traditional Ekushey Loving Book Fair because of the Corona epidemic. The book fair was not held in February, which is called language month. The Amar Ekushey Book Fair will be held from March 16 to April 14. In other words, the fair will continue until the 1st Baishakh, another national festival of the Bengalis. In the middle will be added the great ‘Independence Day’ of March 26. Today, March 17, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina will open the Amar Ekushey Book Fair. At this year’s book fair, the Bangla Academy authorities allocated 606 booths, including 31 pavilions, large and small, by lottery. 106 posts have been allocated at the Bangla Academy premises and 802 posts at Suhrawardy Udyan.
The Immortal Ekushey Book Fair of 2021 will bring the tide of joy overflowing in the depths of our souls, literature, philosophy, science and many other things will gather on the fair premises. This fair of life will accelerate the flow of Bengali values and culture by removing the fatigue of the Crown epidemic. Books and book fairs will spread the light of humanity and honesty in the minds of Bengalis.
