I always read during my lunch. I go to canteen, have a lunch then read.

How do I tell him to leave me alone, politely? I am there to escape the work/environment. To have one hour of getting away from the real world and I want to read!!!

It is difficult, I agree. Perhaps tell a small untruth and say something like "I'm very sorry, but I need to finish this book for an evening class I'm taking" or something like that?
