Mumbai Bookies, the silent reading club
A free Sunday reading club that gathers strangers in Mumbai parks, libraries, factories, beaches, churches, and heritage sites.
Why it surfaced
Mumbai Bookies removes the talking from the book club: readers bring whatever they are already reading and sit silently together from 8 to 10 on Sunday mornings. The venue stays off the internet, revealed only after registration, because the club says many of its borrowed spaces opened their doors on that condition.
