Algerian publisher Entreprise nationale de communication, d'édition et de publicité (ANEP) has unveiled three new publications in French at the 29th Algiers International Book Fair. One of the new titles is "Elnet, le lobby israélien au cœur du pouvoir français" by Ahmed Bensaâda, which explores the activities of the Israeli lobby organization Elnet and its influence in France. The book examines the mechanisms of pressure and influence deployed by Elnet, including organizing trips and visits to Israel for French politicians, parliamentarians, and journalists.
According to Hassan Gherab, advisor to ANEP, Bensaâda's book sheds light on how Elnet builds relationships and creates networks of influence in France. The organization facilitates meetings between French personalities and Israeli officials, contributing to the promotion of the Israeli narrative in France and beyond. The book is part of ANEP's efforts to diversify its editorial offer and promote books that stimulate reflection on historical, political, and human issues.
The other two new publications presented by ANEP are "Révoltés pour la dignité" by Mustapha Khiati and "Nemours, l'ombre de l'or". Khiati's book explores the history of Algerian popular resistance from 1830 to 1954, highlighting lesser-known episodes of resistance. The book provides a broader understanding of the various forms of popular rejection of colonization and the continuity of Algerian resistance throughout history.
"Nemours, l'ombre de l'or" is a collaborative work between a young woman and a journalist, which tells a story of resilience and perseverance in the face of adversity. The book goes beyond a simple autobiographical account, focusing on the notions of resilience, resistance, and perseverance. It addresses a wide audience, particularly young readers, with messages of hope and the ability to overcome difficulties.
ANEP's catalog now comprises over 700 titles, and the company aims to promote its editorial wealth at the book fair. The publisher is offering discounts of up to 30% on books published until 2025, encouraging readers to acquire new titles and giving visibility to previously published works.
The 29th Algiers International Book Fair provides a platform for ANEP to showcase its new publications and engage with readers. The event promotes a diverse range of books, fostering a culture of reading and intellectual exploration in Algeria.
ANEP's new publications and discounts are part of its efforts to make books more accessible to a wider audience. The company's stand at the book fair, located in the central pavilion of the Palais des expositions, offers visitors a chance to explore its extensive catalog and discover new authors and topics.
