The Eighth Hargeisa International Book Fair

This year - the eighth for the Hargeisa International Book Fair - was the biggest one ever. So big, that the venue was changed to a giant hall, with room for several thousand people. 





Somali singers Sahra Ilays and Mahamad BK opened the festival and got us all dancing.

Mr Gulaid - who owns the gigantic hall where the festival was held
