It was an idyllic afternoon few days after Christmas. I was walking along Craig Street - people were sparse and traffic was quiet - I dropped by the Caliban Book Shop and chanced upon a used copy of Yann Martel's Life of Pi. Only $3.75. After paying for it and leaving Caliban, I strolled down to the local cafe and sat down to read. And so began an amazing journey...
It is a good read. And an appropriate one, since I have not read (for leisure) for a long time. It felt like an appetizer course; now, I am hungry for more.
