Kuwait Book Fair 2006

Anyone who know me knows i must go to Book Fair , never missed one since i was around 14

So I went this Year What i noticed ?

– Less Books : there are less books than Last Year , not much Translated book or new English Books for example Last Year had hilary Clinton Books and some Michael Moore Books Translated to Arabic , i didn’t see any of the books released this year or past year there
( when i say any Books i mean Books that made headlines , like bob woodward books )

– There Are more Kuwaiti Publisher and they are Good , more books and better quality Than Egyptian and Syrian publishers

– Speaking of Syria , What is their Problem ? how Could the people running the fair allow this kind of Farce ?

Yes our beloved Sheik with a smaller picture that Bashar Alasad , when i asked them they said they couldn’t get a bigger Picture of sheik Jaber , when i asked why couldn’t get a smaller picture of bashar ( not like they don’t have all sizes I’m sure , even passport picture size ) he didn’t respond

Same big freaking picture and not even a picture of our new sheik , what gives , no respect at all

– Some people of the world ( some would say most ) think Arab Are terrorist , and nothing to show that more but to sell books like these

Weapon Book

Okay i want to ask , is there even a market for books like these ?

– If there is a Book i recomend to Buy is this

I have Read The book Many Times in Arabic ( i had a Translated version , Very old one ) and was trying to get this Book for a long time ( found it on amazon lately for 50 $ and was going to order it
It is a story of a British Man who goes on a Kuwaiti Ship and sail all the way to Africa , the hardship they endured
