The Polish stand, organised by the Book Institute, has been very popular – visitors are attracted by the name of the new Nobel Prize winner, a refreshed look, as well as the attractive offerings of Polish exhibitors and the potential of our book market.

Frankfurter Buchmesse is the most important industry event in the publishing world. Every year around 300,000 visitors take part in it. Among them there will be the Polish Book Institute, which organizes the Polish stand. The honorary guest of this year’s edition is Norway. The official press conference on the occasion of the opening of the fair was attended by the Nobel Prize winner Olga Tokarczuk.

Every year the Polish Book Institute prepares the New Books from Poland catalogue for publishers and translators around the world, presenting the best books from recent years, as well as the most interesting phenomena in contemporary Polish literature, and timeless classics. The premiere of the catalogue is in line with the industry calendar, as it coincides with the International Book Fair in Frankfurt, the most important event in the publishing industry in the world.
