📚🤩From December 4–7, the 27th Moscow International Book Fair lit up Gostiny Dvor with world-class fiction and nonfiction — and South Africa shone brightly among them. A delegation of 12 talented South African authors, supported by the Department of Sport, Arts and Culture (DSAC), represented the country. Through panel discussions, book signings, and global networking, they showcased the richness of South African storytelling. 🇿🇦 Author Vonani Bila described the event as “one of the best organized book fairs,” highlighting the strong international interest in South Africa’s diverse voices, languages, and cultural traditions. 🇿🇦Nomawele Njongo emphasized the importance of expanding South Africa’s presence even further, including translating more works into Russian: “I am so grateful to be here and to embrace the love for literature, culture and heritage. People here truly appreciate South African literature.” Photo: DSAC #SouthAfricansInRussia
