Of Mice and Men

Published 1 year ago in Don't Panic. 7 Comments

Oh, this has to be written.

Last evening I went to Khan Market- the old bastion of book shops and cafe’s in New Delhi, looking for a copy of Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men.

INT- RESPECTABLE BOOKSHOP - EVENING

Me: Do you have the book, Of Mice and Men?
(hesitant pause)
By John Steinbeck?

The bookshop owner looks me up and down, curls his lip and replies in disgust.
Owner: We don’t have a computer section.

Don’t Panic, Dev. All will be ok.
