It was the first day of the New Year, first Sunday, and also the last day of the 35th Hyderabad National Book Fair where there were more than three hundred stalls packed with books. But I wanted to go to Abids and I went only to buy just one book, a title that I never miss buying though I have bought multiple copies so far.
‘On Writing’ by Stephen King is a title I first found a long time back, more than two decades ago. Since then I must have bought more than twenty copies of this book and given them away to people who told me they wanted to write. Last Sunday I came across another copy that I bought right away for a hundred rupees. It was a beautiful copy in very good condition that I was lucky to find.
