This 73-year-old librarian in Kerala walks 4 km every day to promote reading


This 73-year-old librarian in Kerala walks 4 km every day to promote reading

Over the past 14 years, Umadevi Antharjanam has visited at least 220 houses in Budhannoor village in Kerala to distribute books and promote reading.

When was the last time you picked up a book, inhaled the heady scent between its pages, and got lost in its content? Struggling a bit? In today’s hyperactive world of social media, we have lost many habits that we had inculcated during our childhood, like playing outdoor games, taking part in dance or music classes, or losing ourselves in books and comics.
