Dominique Lapierre may have hailed Kolkata as the ‘City of Joy’, but this city can also be called the city of books. Like many Kolkatans, Arshdeep is passionate about books. So, the first place he takes his friends to are the old and rare bookshops that are tucked around in the city. College Street’s old and secondhand stalls are popular. Arshdeep suggests visiting Earthcare Bookstore on Middleton Street – a quaint specialty bookstore that stocks rare and uncommon reads not found elsewhere.
