"For Bulgaria, every day is May 24. But there is nothing more natural and nothing better than celebrating the Book Fair on the third day of the brightest Bulgarian holiday, Vice President Iliana Iotova said at the opening of the 17th Spring Book Fair in Sofia, which will run until June 1.
In her words, in the 21st century, when artificial intelligence dares to write books, books give us something that AI cannot replace. “By reading a book, you gain much more knowledge, you learn to think, discern good from evil, and become immune to those who maliciously seek to control and manipulate you”, Iliana Iotova said.
Minister of Culture Marian Bachev noted that the ministry's programmes for funding authors and publishers are extremely important so that more and more new titles of all genres can reach the most remote corners of the country and Bulgarians abroad.
