Thanks for letting us know Amin.

Could you/anyone else share from experience:

Did you visit it last time? Are there any english books available? If yes, what sort of?

I'll definitely visit if there is some english stuff available.

The english view of the website just weird.

I visited it last year. There were English Books, but the fair was mainly focused on Arabic books.
English books were various including novels.
Yeah, the English version of the website has less information than the Arabic version.

The non-Arab publishing houses (They probably have English books) and their locations in the fair for this year are:

Hope that is helpful
Great feedback Amin. :one

Will visit!
Yeah! A bookfair! Thanks for sharing this! I hope I can go after my exams!:D
I went to that book fair a couple of days ago. Unfortunately most of the books available are not in English language, luckily I was able to pull out some english books with the help of a kind US vice consul. However, you may visit the place, it's pretty good.
