Highlights from the Kunta Kinteh International Book Festival.
Day 1
It's no doubt that "When The Monkey Talks", The Magic Calabash will be found.
Amazingly, what would you expect the outcome of a meeting combining Hon. Nana Grey Johnson, Baba Sillah, Musa Bah (Scribbler), Prof. Cherno Omar Barry, Nyada Yoba Baldeh, Madam Isatou Ndow, and the likes on the same table?
Indeed, it's going to be magic on every word from them, melting microphones, turning them into pens and papers to write, inspire, comfort and rewrite stories.
*The Writers' Association of The Gambia (WAG)* on the revitalization mission is proud to present to you highlights of the *Kunta Kinteh International Book Festival (KKIBF).*
If you've missed the panel discussions and parallel sessions (meet the author and literary Dialogue) on Thursday 18th, please no need to stress up yourself, because we've got you covered.
