India was was the "Guest of Honour" at the Frankfurt
Book Fair which was held in October 2006. The theme of the event,
"Today's India" had the aim to throw the limelight onto
contemporary India and its vast number of cultures.
The focus was not on authors writing in English - though they were
represented by Vikram Seth, Arundhati Roy and Amitav Ghosh - but
on those authors who wrote in other Indian languages. They included
Vijay Tendulkar (Marathi), Sunil Gangopadhyaya (Bengali), Ghulam
Mohammad Sheikh (Gujarati), just to name a few.
