What is the Festival of Books?
The Los Angeles Times Festival of Books began in 1996 with a simple goal:
to bring together the people who create books with the people who love to read them.
The Festival was an immediate success and has become the largest and most prestigious
book festival in the country, attracting more than 140,000 book lovers each year.
