Harmony THE BOOK SHOP: From the Proprietor himself
"Each day I sit in my Book shop at the Assi
Ghat overlooking the River Ganges. As the river
flows through Varanasi, thousands of ideas and
images ripple through the books in my store. On
my shelves you will find texts exploring Indian
and Buddhist philosophy and religion, Islam, Indian
Art, Dance, Music and Architecture, Textiles,
History, Sociology, Politics, Ayurveda, Yoga,
Spiritual discipline, Hindi and Sanskritlanguage
courses and Banaras. Alongside these publications
are a carefully selected cascade of ‘coffee
table style’ books capturing images of India
by world class photographers such as Raghu Rai,
Raghubir Singh, Rajesh Bedi, Henri Cartier- Bresson,
Steve McCurry and Sebastiao Salgado. Drifting
through the hundreds of books are soft sounds
of Indian classical and devotion music from the
CD’s and Cassettes I sell as well. If you
visit Banaras and are travelling light, I can
ship books for you by sea or air at very reasonable
rates. If you are persuaing Internet I can arrange
to export all types of books. Simply e-mail me
the title, publisher, and aurthor of the book
you desire and I will inform you of the book’s
price and the method of payment. And so as the
river glides by I sit and await your visit"
