Book Paradise!

Went Blossom hunting last week.
With the result that I have at my disposal now-

The Time Traveler's Wife

Agatha Christie Omnibus.

Two States.

The Evening News

and some 15 M&Bs!

All waiting my pleasure.
Life can sometimes be blissful even amid the chaos.

Chennai is way better than Bangalore if one wants to go book hunting. There are soooo many roadside and foothpath stalls (Near Bata showroom at Mount road, Moor Market, Triplicane, Burma Bazaar), where the vendor has no clue about the worth of the book or the value of its content.
You would get most classics at a throw away price. I have found some "out of print" books there.

Wish Bangalore had such places. Here bibliophiles have only one choice-Blossoms.
