Brooklyn Book Festival 2014
The Brooklyn Book Festival is the largest free literary event in New York City, presenting an array of national and international literary stars and emerging authors. One of America’s premier book festivals, this hip, smart diverse gathering attracts thousands of book lovers of all ages to enjoy authors and the festival’s lively literary marketplace. It was begun in 2006 by Former Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz, who wanted to showcase the “Brooklyn voice” in literature, as numerous authors reside in the borough.
Here is my photogenic look at the festival.

Looks like an event that I would have loved to have attended. Glad that Dru Ann Love of Dru's Book Musings was there to tell us all about it. Thank you for all the photos and the great information.
