The South African Book Fair finds a new home

This year’s edition of the South African Book Fair took place in the Women’s Jail at Constitution Hill in Johannesburg from 6 – 8 September, and was a great success. With more than 100 authors, more than 50 sessions and a dedicated schools programme, the fair attracted a record number of visitors, including more than
400 learners from outlying Gauteng schools.

Programme Manager, Olinka Nell, cites the abundance of good content as well as the move to a new venue as the main drivers for the reinvigorated event: ‘A whole new generation of writers are coming the fore. The authentic content readers have been yearning for for years is finally being published.’
