“Rewayat” brings Bill Clinton to Arabic readers 

Rewayat, an imprint of Kalimat Publishing Group, will release the first-edition Arabic translations of two popular works; The President is Missing (2018), the much-talked-about political thriller co-authored by Bill Clinton and James Patterson; and Old Path White Clouds (1987) by Vietnamese Buddhist monk, peace activist and prolific writer, Thich Nhat Hanh, at the Abu Dhabi International Book Fair 2019.

The division, which is dedicated to publishing Arabic and translated fiction and non-fiction, forms a major part of Kalimat Group’s presence at the 29th edition of Abu Dhabi International Book Fair, which is taking place from April 24–30.
