    From Capital of Books to an International Book Event: Les 72 Heurs du Livre in Guinea- engl/ger/fre

    Trois collegiennes plongees dans des romans et livres pour ados lors des 72 heures du livre a Conakry

    This week, the book fair "72 Heures du Livre" starts for the 14th time in the capital Conakry of the West African Guinea. Book fair? Guinea? Exactly. What started here 14 years ago on a small scale has since developed into an international cultural event that has become known far beyond the borders of Guinea. In 2017, Conakry was even awarded the title "Capital du Livre" by UNESCO. An enormous boost and impetus for even more book-related activities.

    Architectural Guide Sub-Saharan Africa – Teil/Part 2 Sahel and Atlantic Ocean

    SN Goree 1 © Adil Dalbai Kopie

    In the second part of the review of the architectural guide published by DOM publishers Berlin and edited by Philipp Meuser/Adil Dalbai, I go into more detail about the seven-volume edition. The seven volumes comprise more than 3400 pages. It has been in the works since 2014, with over 300 authors and contributors, most of them African. It was an unprecedented undertaking that has been magnificently successful. The content of the volumes can only be outlined, it is an exciting journey into the world of African architecture and yet much more.
