I’ve always liked to read, but books have been particularly important during my time living in India. I basically always carry a novel around to read during downtime. I’ve polished off 8 in the past 2 months alone!
Imagine my excitement then to attend the big book festival that’s going on here in Chennai. Fun! I can’t even remember the last book fair I went to – probably in elementary school?
Though hot and crowded with schoolchildren running all over the place, there were hundreds of stalls with books on absolutely any topic you could think of. I went with a group of coworkers. Our goal? To purchase a) books for training sessions and b) new additions for the NGO’s library. I’m not terribly useful when it comes to selecting books in Tamil, so I left it to the pros and took pictures instead (before wandering off in search of English fiction):
