Experience BookWorld 2010 in Prague - LateRooms.com

    PRAGUE, April 06, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Founded in 1995, BookWorld is held in the Prague Exhibition Grounds and brings literature lovers from across Europe flocking to the Czech capital every 12 months.

Poland has been declared the guest of honour for this year's festival, meaning there will be a special focus on Polish writers and the nation's literary heritage.

Another of the event's main themes will be literature for children and young people, so there should also be plenty of activities for families to enjoy.

People staying in Prague hotels can expect to see esteemed authors such as Sarah Waters, Josef Winkler, Ceija Stojka and Mikael Nimei participating in this year's BookWorld.

The fact that the festival takes place in Prague means there is also a chance of Czech greats such as Milan Kundera and Vaclav Havel making a surprise appearance.

As well as the various book presentations and readings, the festival programme includes BookWorld in Film - a selection of movies based on works of global literature.

Tickets for the opening day of the festival are priced at 120 koruna (GBP4.10), while children under the age of 15 qualify for free entry.
