THE CHENNAI’S LANDMARK


“Are you going to Nungambakkam? Shall drop you there and I will be returning only after a couple of hours, so take an auto on your way back home”. Said my husband who is eternally busy with his laboratory schedules. I decided to go with him and was just thinking what do I do in Nungambakkam for 1 hour 45 minutes. Had a brilliant idea. ''Great, I am coming with you, pick me up from Landmark on your way back.'' ''Landmark, Nungambakkam or Radhakrishnan Salai?'' Asked my husband. ''Oh Today there are inaugurating one there. So drop me at Radhakrishnan Salai.'' An overjoyed me said.


Although, not very old, this bookshop has created waves in Chennai. Earlier, you would just find a few classics, some latest novels and few books in science and some stationery. Over the years, this bookstore has grown not only in size but also in its quality of books and number of other things. It is really true that you could spend hours there either reading or gazing through the choice of gifts displayed.


The classification of books, the presentation of the new books, the posters of the forthcoming publications is an example of excellent marketing. I think one has a great range of choice amongst the books displayed there. You have almost all the Indian and International authors on various books.


The most interesting thing about Landmark is the fact, “May I help you”. In case you are looking for something very specific and exact, you could get someone easily to help you out looking into the racks. And in the event they don’t have it, I am sure they would take down the details of the book or cassette or CD and get it for you. In fact, it saves you the trouble of running around everywhere looking for it. I am making a mention of this out of personal experience where I needed something quite urgently and I got it through Landmark, Nungambakkam.


The choice of gift articles is also worth a mention. Such exquisite and impressive ones displayed that you would end up buying a few more than you have decided. The ranges have something special and when you gift them away you really feel that you given an excellent gift.


Display of ensuing theatre plays, programs, concerts and musical evenings is a specialty. Other bookstores also have them, but the ones advertised in Landmark have an impression – the right place and the right time of being put up.


The replacement procedures are also quite good. They take pains to check before they give the article and in case you ask for a change they do give but on proper verification of the item being exchanged.


The shop is a little congested for people to move but that’s okay. Now that they are having another one on Radhakrishnan Salai I am sure the crowd would be distributed.
