Picture this: you’re on your usual way back from work on the LRT, or having a drink in a cafe. Or maybe you’re having a walk through a mall.

And then you see it. A book, unattended, just lying there by itself. Your first impulse is someone left it behind. But a sticker on the cover removes all doubt: this book has been left here on purpose, by a local literary group.
