For the past few years, the month of March has been officially dedicated to literary pursuits in the UAE.
It all started in 2017, following the Year of Reading in 2016. In October of that year, the President, Sheikh Khalifa announced a Reading Law that obliged schools to encourage reading among pupils, in addition to promoting a respect for books.
He also launched the Arab Reading Challenge, the largest Arab knowledge initiative in the world, in 2015.
That love of literature has only arguably
become stronger since many of us have spent more time than ever at home with our noses in books during the pandemic.
