عن الكتب خان والمراكز الثقافية في القاهرة - الاهرام ويكلي . Kotobkhan In the tradition of engaged bookshops pioneered locally by the Diwan chain but stretching back perhaps to San Francisco’s City Lights, Kotobkhan (an archaic word for “bookshop”) has recently acquired a larger space in Maadi, its original birthplace since it opened in May 2006. A quiet spot for reading and browsing, it is also an active hub of book-related activities. Over the years Kotobkhan has perfected the concept of “reading as a lifestyle”, adding such facilities as a mini-cafe and free wifi the invaluable service of creative writing workshops often followed by publication, and careful to provide not only world titles but the best in contemporary Arabic writing as well as a larger than usual selection of children’s books. As well as book launches and seminars, activities include film screenings, story-telling sessions for children, lectures and workshops. 13 St, 254 Maadi
