Today is a rainy day

I remember reading ‘Of Love and other Demons’ on a platform. The Indian monsoon rains were being blown around into the sheltered bits and the edges of most pages of my copy were wet. No wonder I love Marquez!
What books do you remember reading in the rain?
What book do you want to read on a rainy day?
You mean on a railway platform?!
Lucky Marquez!
Delhi Metro, Mayur Vihar Phase I platform. It’s so open from all sides!
PS: New template? New looks are nice.
Thanks 🙂
I was just trying to fix the fact that you can’t se my ‘About’ page anywhere, can you?
Lovely cozy mental image, of reading on a rainy day–and on a railway platform, too, with raindrops bespattering the edges of your book. Oh, for a whole month with nothing to do but stay at home and read, looking out at the driving rain!
I know… I didn’t obviously realize it then. But it comes back to me on rainy days. Indian monsoons are cozy and pretty only when indoors and reading, with tea!
