in Frankfurt is where you will find many publishing companies (over 7,100) and a good number of literary agents and scouts (about 800) from around the world gathered in one place to do business. I’d like to share with you my book fair experience and some of the important things I learned while there.

The total number of trade professionals is well over 170,000 people from 132 countries, making this book event the largest in the world.

Answer:

promoting sales and stimulating interest

  • 1 : a display or exhibit of books typically by a group of publishers or bookdealers for promoting sales and stimulating interest.
  • 2 : a fair or bazaar at which books are sold or auctioned to raise money for some worthy cause.

Explanation:

The fair is also the publishing industry’s largest media event of the world, with news and other media coverage from nearly 10,000 journalists and 1400 accredited bloggers. (I’m one of them!)

The bulk of the book fair is closed to the general public. The weekend days, Saturday and Sunday, are open to everyone – and that’s when it gets really crazy. But if you want to meet with someone for professional reasons (and not merely the shared love of books), then you need to get in during the week.

A bit like Disneyland.

It’s still a madhouse, even on those closed days. No kidding, it reminded me of trips to Disneyland as a kid. It’s very exciting and busy – everywhere. Every café and bathroom has a line by noontime. And all in all, it is quite a ride. Books and bookish people are all around.

I must say, I didn’t envy the literary agents who were there. Those guys are in one meeting after the next, back-to-back. They do get smoke breaks, and I could easily spot those who were agents quickly trying to relax before their next pitch.
