I went to Daryaganj again last Sunday and bought me some new books.
- Eon by Greg Bear (finished reading)
- The Crystal Cave by Mary Stewart (hardcover)
- Hyperion by Dan Simmons
- Smith of Wooten Major and Farmer Giles of Ham by J.R.R. Tolkien (almost done)
- Franny and Zooey by J.D. Salinger
- A Long Way Down by Nick Hornby
- The Wind in the Willows by Grahame Cooper
All that for a total of Rs. 220 (around 5.6 US$) only. I love the place!
I’ve started applying the tag ‘daryaganj’ to books I’ve picked up there (on LibraryThing). I hope others start picking this habit up as well—it would be a lot of fun to see what books people manage to get their hands on.
Also, here’s my recent order on Sify:
- Coraline by Neil Gaiman
- Stardust by Neil Gaiman — already delivered, finished reading
- The Wandering Fire by Guy Gavriel Kay (Fionavar Tapestry Book 2)
- The Darkest Road by Guy Gavriel Kay (Fionavar Tapestry Book 3) — already delivered, can’t read this until I get book 2 though
- Black Man by Richard Morgan
