So, I went to Khan Market for lunch and then sauntered into a bookstore to look at the New Arrivals section and mourn the fact that my book was missing. Having done so, I was greatly surprised to see that the book, while not amongst the New Arrivals, had nevertheless actually arrived and was lurking in the Indian section, trying not to draw attention to itself.
Go to.
ok, it’s out in Delhi now, which means it might be out this weekend elsewhere, and if it’s not you can yell and break stuff. I will.
Update:
And here is the first piece on it, on IBNlive.com

Do we get to organise bandhs if it doesn’t come out?

Posted by Anonymous | December 21, 2007, 8:22 pmWhat? No fancy launch on budday like last year? Nevertheless, I’m told by someone (let’s call her Ash) that the book is available in shops. Will buy tomorrow. Until then, am avoiding all reviews.
Posted by Nikhil | December 22, 2007, 10:19 pmwalked into Tekson’s Bookshop in Noida on Saturday and there it was sitting on top of the previous two books. I didn’t have any worthwhile money but I borrowed some from my girlfriend and I was good to go. I’ve read a little and I’m already aching with laughter.
Posted by Rahul | December 23, 2007, 2:04 amIt’s not in Kolkata yet!! 😦 😦 😦 I am already throwing and breaking stuff, but in vain. Oxford says 15 days, Crossword says no idea, Starmark/Landmark says next week…!! Michil ber korte pari?
Posted by Jayantika | December 23, 2007, 10:23 amI called Oxford and Landmark in Mumbai on Saturday and they had no idea about the book or when will it be available. I check in Crossword (Mumbai-Kempas Corner) today and they also had no idea when the book would arrive. ’10 days maybe’ was all the attendent said helpfully.
Any idea exactly when will it be available in Mumbai and at which bookstore?

It is serendipity. I am working alone on a christmas day. Sudeenly thought of you and decided to check if the third part is out yet. And once, for once, I am so lucky. 🙂
I don’t know if it is out yet in Bangalore. Will check out today. Hopefully it would be soon available on web, otherwise.
Can’t wait!
Lots of love for creating these moments of happiness for so many of us.
