At the Radhi-Waala....


Jus when u feel that there is too much 'commercialization' happening around, comes along a friend who will rummage the Radhi-waala n dig out some lovely discarded books! Her finds in this dingy basement shop(n tht explains the poor pic quality) have included 'The Complete Works of Khalil Gibran', 'World Is Flat', 'Life of Pi', 'Connect The Dots', 'India Unbound' ........


 Maybe she's one of those shining lights who reaffirms my faith in the existence of a non-materialist world in a largely 'monetary' world.

    What are you saying? Such gems with Raddiwala? I used to go to such raddiwalas sometimes earlier but those people would segregate books, magazines and comics and would sell at low price.

    I love your take on all the themes so far! Its so different and yet so apt, every single time!

    I haven't been able to comment on your page from my phone. The browser collapsed every single time. Finally, I'm able to comment, now that my laptop is connected to the broadband.
