Every January, Kolkata transforms into a city of books. Readers wander through rows of stalls, publishers present new titles, and conversations about literature fill the winter air. It is in this vibrant setting that Sampark joins thousands of readers at the annual book fair.

This year, Sampark Books is participating in the Kolkata International Book Fair, one of the largest literary gatherings in the world and a major cultural event in eastern India. The 49th edition of the fair runs from 22 January to 3 February, welcoming visitors every day from 12 PM to 8 PM.

Readers can find Sampark at Stall No. E46, located near Gate No. 3, close to the Foreign Complex. The stall showcases a wide range of titles reflecting the publisher’s philosophy—books for everyone. From contemporary essays and literary criticism to fiction, poetry, translations, and history, the collection represents voices and ideas that engage with society, culture, and intellectual life.

Among the books on display are works that explore political thought, social history, regional literature, and contemporary debates. Titles ranging from studies on modern society to literary magazines like Eastern Review sit alongside Bengali works and translations, creating a diverse reading space for visitors. The stall also highlights publications that bring together scholarship and storytelling, reflecting Sampark’s commitment to thoughtful publishing.

For readers attending the fair, the Sampark stall offers more than just books. It is a place to discover new authors, revisit familiar ideas, and engage in conversations about literature and society.

In the lively atmosphere of the Kolkata International Book Fair—where thousands gather each day—Sampark’s presence continues its effort to connect readers with meaningful writing, keeping alive the enduring culture of books and discussion.
