520			_aCorridor by Sarnath Banerjee is a graphic novel set in contemporary Delhi, primarily around Connaught Place. The story revolves around Jehangir Rangoonwalla, a wise second-hand bookseller and tea shop owner, whose shop serves as a meeting point for an eclectic mix of characters. Among them is Brighu, a collector searching for rare items and meaningful love; Digital Dutta, who struggles between his Marxist ideology and dreams of an H-1B visa; and Shintu, a newly married man exploring the streets of old Delhi in search of the perfect aphrodisiac. Through these characters and their interactions, the novel captures the complexities, contradictions, and alienation of urban life, blending humor, nostalgia, and a deep reflection on modern existence.
