India turns the page: Publishing boom opens new chapter for books
Digital detox
With digital fatigue setting in after years of pandemic-induced screen overload, reading seems to be in vogue once again. “Gadgets have only so much of a lifeline. There’s been a realization about the kind of entertainment people are seeking, and as a result, reading has diversified. We see an overall upswing in many categories: cookery, health, spirituality,” said Kapish Mehra, managing director of Rupa Publications and co-founder of Aleph Book Company.“We have even added two new imprints—Moonstone, dedicated to children’s books, and Sanskriti Press, focused on spirituality and religion, post-pandemic.”
