Nestle d
in a quite little corner in the heart of Bangalore's busiest area,
Premier Book House offers you a delightful getaway from the hustle
and bustle all around. It has been catering to book lovers since 1971,
and has a loyal clientele who appreciate their care and a genuine
love for books that sets them apart. They only stock books and magazines.
You will not find any textbooks nor boring tomes that spout academics.
Rather, they look to capture the interest of that dying breed, the
'true book lovers', who, if the fancy takes them would delve into
a bookshop and spend hours lost in the land of books.
Shanbag, the owner, takes pride in his trade and looks to serve
his customers better with every passing year. They stock books under
sections of art, travel, health care, philosophy, and cookery. They
also have coffee table books on the vast riches of our cultural
heritage and reference books too. All this contributes to the steady
stream of foreigners from all over looking to take a piece of India
back to their homelands.
When asked to comment on the trend of
book lovers over the years, Shanbag says that though there might
have been a slight decline in the habit of reading, books will never
lose their irreplaceable charm. He also says that they are not looking
to cater to specific tastes. Rather, they want to provide books
for people with interests over various spheres.
The next time you are looking for a few well-thumbed classics or
the latest bestseller on the racks, do have a 'Premier' look at
what's in store!
