T his
outlet of Bookpoint is part of a chain across Mumbai, Hyderabad
and Chennai. They made their beginning at Mumbai 25 years ago and
went on to expand, setting up the Bangalore branch seven years ago.
They are an associate company of Orient Longman Ltd and stock all
publications by them, though this is not exclusive and they stock
books by other publishers also.
They have books under categories such as science and technology, fiction
and non-fiction, management, history, health care, fashion, children
books, tourism and cooking. They have books on ELT, i.e., English
language and teaching, which cover a whole range of books on grammar,
dictionaries, etc.
They specialize in books on fashion and design related topics.
They deal in CD ROMs too. They offer a reasonable discount of 10%
on purchases. Some of their popular clients include erudite scholars
and achievers like Girish Karnad. They also stock magazines to cater
to varying tastes.
The manager A R.Vinayaka noted with some concern the steady decrease
in the habit of reading. "It is quite distressing that we are
so caught up in the frenetic pace of life in this age that we no
longer have time for books and all the delights they have in store
for us," he said. So, let's take time out to rediscover the
magic of books and indulge in some food for thought.
