A Date with Mr. Chandramouli | Reflections for the Week - Arun Kumar Chokkappa

Hi - 

If you’re a fan of Tamil cinema, you probably remember the moment Karthik proposes to Revathi in Mouna Ragam. That stunning backdrop of floor-to-ceiling books and winding iron staircases? That’s the Madras Literary Society (MLS) in Nungambakkam.

I have some poetic news: "An Architect’s Dilemma" has officially been accepted into the MLS collection!

 Visit & Borrow

• Madras Literary Society: The library is currently under renovation to preserve its historic charm. It is expected to be fully up and running by June. Once it reopens, you can find the book in the Authors' Section, and yes—members can borrow it!

• Anna Centenary Library: The book is currently being cataloged and will be available for you to browse in about two weeks.

• Connemara Public Library: Following their standard cataloging process, the book will be available to the public shortly after.

For those who want to see the journey, I’ve updated my Gallery Page with some behind-the-scenes shots of these iconic institutions:  View the Gallery Here

Whether you’re visiting for the architecture, the history, or the Mouna Ragam nostalgia, I hope you’ll pull my book off the shelf and say hello.​

Writing An Architect’s Dilemma was a journey of many blueprints and revisions. Now that it’s out in the world (and soon on the shelves of the Connemara!), I want to hear from you.

• Share Your Thoughts: Have you read it yet? I’d love to hear your comments or see your reviews on Amazon. Your feedback helps other readers find the book!  Leave a Review / Buy on Amazon

• Aspiring Authors, Listen Up: Many of you have reached out asking about the "how-to" of writing and self-publishing. If you have a story tucked away and need a nudge or some practical guidance on the self-publishing process, hit reply to this email. I’m happy to share what I’ve learned!

"I truly value your time and space. If you’d prefer not to receive these updates, please just reply to this email and let me know—no hard feelings at all!"  

With Gratitude,

Arun
