Tucked away in a quiet corner of Mumbai's bustling Bandra locality, Trilogy, beckons book lovers to explore its expanse. Founded in 2014 by Ahalya Naidu and Meethil Momaya, this independent library-cum-bookstore offers a curated selection of reads, that have captured the hearts of bibliophiles far and wide. And since we already have your attention now, read on to know more!
Originally situated in southern Mumbai, Trilogy found its new home in a charming two-level house near Jogger's Park, in the summer of 2019. Despite facing the challenges of the COVID-19 lockdown in March 2020, Naidu and Momaya remained steadfast in their commitment to their loyal patrons. Through innovative measures like curbside pickups, deliveries, and online sales, the founders kept the spirit of Trilogy alive, nurturing the bond with their community of readers.
Step inside Trilogy, and you'll find yourself enveloped in a world where the love for books knows no bounds. The ground level buzzes with the excitement of browsing through carefully curated titles, while upstairs, members of the library immerse themselves in literary delights.
It's no wonder that Trilogy was honoured with India's prestigious Publishing Next Award for Bookstore of the Year in 2018, a testament to its enduring charm and commitment to fostering a vibrant reading culture. And not to miss, they've also enjoyed fruitful partnerships with WSD, Bhau Daji Lad, Kahani Karnival, Godrej Culture Labs, Taj Wellington, Essar Group, Times Lit Fest, and various other organisations.
Truly, Naidu and Momaya's journey is one fueled by passion and dedication. What began as a shared vision to create a publishing house specialising in Indian wildlife and nature, evolved into something even greater—a haven for readers and writers alike. The name Trilogy symbolises their reverence for the reader, the writer, and the book itself, embodying the essence of their literary oasis.
As Trilogy continues to navigate the ever-changing landscape of the literary world, it stands as a steadfast beacon of hope and inspiration for book lovers everywhere. This indie Bandra bookstore invites all to embark on a journey of imagination and discovery, reaffirming the profound impact that literature has on our lives.
