Excursions Of A Bibliophile

About

VishThere is life outside books. But whatever that is there is very little. Books fascinate me and am convinced that it is one of the few avenues that allow one to explore and understand human beings

    Life can be much simpler Vishy. Probably, I am that lunatic, who stands next to Jesus Christ….:-)

    Hi Vishweshwar!

    You’ve got a lovely blog up here. With your keen interest in books and literature, I’m sure you will enjoy visiting Culturazzi. The club is a non profit organization that was recently started and strives to bring people in literature, cinema, arts, music and theater etc from across the world together on a common platform, where they can share their thoughts, opinions, and interact with each other. You could get in touch with them if you wish to contribute!

    I especially like your review for Never Let me go.. One of my favorites – as well as one of the few I could keep revisiting, like you.

    Once again,
    I congratulate you on the great blog you’ve put up here.

    Best,
    Ridhi.

  5. Dear friend, your blog turned up when I was searching for reviews of Somerset Maugham’s ‘The Vagrant Mood’ that I had found at Bangalore sometime last week.. I am very impressed with the reviews on the blog. I consider it as one of the best blogs in India on books that I’ve read. Keep it up.
