“Frankfurter Buchmesse strives to be the key business event for our customers, providing them with all the components they need to succeed. We achieve this by informing them about important trends and topics, enabling their contact to important players in the respective markets and, above all, helping them paving the way to innovative business models in the book and media industry. All year round. On an international scale.”
Author Reputation Press (ARP) has been actively participating and engaging in various worldwide events, such as book fairs, conferences, book exhibitions, and book signings, and still leaves room for contemporary book events.
ARP’s authors have been striving to connect and engage as many authors, publishers, educators, libraries, and many others as possible. It has always been the heart of ARP to share stories of diversity where different cultures, languages, and religions, with all their differences, come together to listen, understand, and learn life through different eyes.
The years of success that ARP and its published authors have had have been fruitful not just to the authors but to the readers and many organizations as well. From the American Library Association (ALA) Annual Conference and New York Library Association (NYLA) to different book fairs such as the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books (LATFOB), Bologna Children’s Book Fair (New Title Showcase), London Book Fair, Beijing International Book Fair (BIBF), Guadalajara Book Fair, and counting.
Now, ARP is beyond excited and honored to participate in the 76th Frankfurt Book Fair (Frankfurter Buchmesse) at Frankfurt, Germany, on October 16–20, 2024. This grand event celebrates exciting stories and their authors. This year, the Italian Guest of Honour Committee has selected physicist and author Carlo Rovelli, writer Susanna Tamaro, and philosopher Stefano Zecchi as literary keynote speakers.
The 76th Frankfurter Buchmesse (16–20 October 2024) will put a spotlight on current topics in the world of international publishing and on today’s socio-political issues. At the same time, it is expanding the venues that allow readers and authors to interact, with an emphasis this year on the growing desire younger readers have to engage with literature.
The book fair’s opening ceremony will take place on 15 October 2024 under the motto “FBM24 is Read!ng—Read. Reflect. Relate.”
With the New Adult area in Hall 1.2, FBM24 has designed a new space that reflects the growing interest young readers in particular have in meeting their preferred authors in person. The area’s 8,000 square metres will offer an additional home to the successful New Adult genre and its subgenres Romantasy and Dark College, along with many queer publishing houses. At the weekend, the numerous fans of these literary worlds can interact with authors such as Jane S. Wonda on the New Adult Stage.
This year, Frankfurter Buchmesse is once again demonstrating its indispensability as a venue for professional exchange in the global book industry, thanks to its fully booked Literary Agents & Scouts Centre (LitAg), the largest meeting place of its kind worldwide, as well as an expanded audio area and an increase in international stages and trade events, including high-ranking CEO talks.
With more than 90 authors traveling to Frankfurt, Italy, this year’s Guest of Honour, will be presenting the full range of its contemporary publishing portfolio. The writers who will be shaping the Guest of Honour programme with their talks and readings include well-known names such as Alessandro Baricco, Annalena Benini, Paolo Cognetti, Claudia Durastanti, Antonio Franchini, Nicola Lagioia, Claudio Magris, Francesca Melandri, and Igiaba Scego.
The programme’s events will take place in the Arena and in the Caffè Letterario, both of which are located in the Guest of Honour Pavilion, designed as a piazza by architect Stefano Boeri. Italy’s appearance as Guest of Honour will also include a trade programme, which will take place at the collective Italian stand in Hall 5.0. This is where Europe’s fourth-largest book market in terms of sales will be presenting itself to the international publishing industry.
