The Other Emirati Book Fair
The “Emirates Air” Book Fair has begun (or taken off, or whatever bad airplane pun you prefer).
The Dubai-based fair doesn’t have the “Arabic Booker”; they have many of the same authors, but not the sizzle of the Abu Dhabi event. But they do have Martin Amis. I believe they’re hoping he makes one of his “old Muslims should be euthanized” statements.
