The ninth Bookfest, the most important book fair in Romania, opened on Thursday and will stay open until June 1.

Under the slogan “Quo Vadis, Poland To the next Nobel?” this year's fair will have a Polish flavour, with a series of events promoting Polish literature in Romania. Danuta Walesa, the wife of former Polish leader Lech Walesa, is among this year’s guests.
