Among them - published over the last two weeks "Family book" by an Israeli writer Efraim Kishon, novel of an outstanding philosopher Martin Buber "Gog and Magog" and "The book of times and events" dedicated to the life of Russian Jewry since new era's beginning till February 1917.

Much in customers' demand were all three stated above books, as well as the biography of a well-known actor Veniamin Zuskin wtitten by his daughter A.Zuskina-Perelman and "The history of Jewish people". Although Boris Yeltsin, who visited MIBF, didn't reach the "Gesharim" stand, a famous PR politician Gleb Pavlovskiy bought the book by M.Kakhane "Never again". Perhaps, he intends to read at home or to look for some fresh ideas in the informational struggle against Islamic fundamentalism.
