What time this book fair opens?
Bought two books for me, four for wife and lots for kid. Should go alone 2moro for peaceful book shopping
Very crowded. Parked at Malalasekara Mw. but bought some good books.
BookFair එක නම් නියමයි! BMICH Car park එක ඇතුලට දාගන්න වට තුනක් කැරකෙන්න වුනා. වාහන ඇතුලට ගත්තෙම නෑ. Full කියලා බෑම කිව්වා.
Janomi,
You missed the point.
You can have all the book shops under one roof. isn’t that great.
It is better to buy books from a book shop rather than in this crowded book exhibiton. somtimes you cannot even select a book because of crowd.
Ms. Sunethra Rajakarunanayake received the Presidential award for ‘best novel of the year’ (2008) for her novel “The Common Husband”.
Prof Nalin de Silva’s books and Prof Sarth Wijesooriya’s books are also good.
