Community-funded and well-attended, BLF 2024 challenges pessimists’ claims that reading and publishing are dead.

From Nobel laureates to new and emerging writers, nonfiction tomes to toddlers’ picture books, the Bangalore Literature Festival 2024 showcased a full spectrum of literature.

Bengaluru is a city of readers and the headquarters of many important national organisations for conservation and climate action. It’s fitting that the festival was hosted here.

The first Mizoram Literature Festival in Aizawl was full of unique attractions.
