On how to blow up clear, wholesome hours doing little, on a work day, there is a book load of material ready.

Found Mukj Raj Anand’s Conversations in Bloomsbury at Mandala Book Shop. Read through some and got to know a whole lot more about MRA’s years in England and back. Got reminded that he was founding editor of MARG. Returned to the city, to one of the few places with a long running subscription of MARG and sat by the old volumes. A page at a time, stepping into times of a connoisseur and of the many who felt, experienced and wrote about all that they found beautiful and worth in the world.
A little bit of that spirit on this floor would be helpful. Until then, back volumes of MARG will continue. Fascination with MRA too. And with history too.
