I will get to the point straight. ‘The Complete Maus’ by Art Spiegelman is one of the best things I have ever read. I wonder why didn’t I read it long ago. For those who haven’t, the premise of the graphic novel is that Arthur (the author/illustrator) is talking to his father Vladek Spiegelman throughContinue reading “So I recently read ‘The Complete Maus’”
So I recently read ‘Surely You’re Joking Mr. Feynman!’
Sometimes you come across some books rather late in life (relatively) and wonder why you didn’t read this earlier! This book is one of those books. ‘Surely You’re Joking Mr. Feynman’ is an autobiography of sorts. It has chapters from Physicist Dr. Richard Feynman’s earliest days when his curiosity led him to experiment and eventuallyContinue reading “So I recently read ‘Surely You’re Joking Mr. Feynman!’”

Just a stone’s throw away
Dropping your kid to school for the first time is an experience in itself. *wait I will continue this in a minute after taking a deep breath and seems like something is in my eyes* It is slightly easier if the pre-school is just a stone’s throw away but leaving them there on their ownContinue reading “Just a stone’s throw away”
So I recently read: Same as Ever
There was always an ongoing joke when I was growing up that if the weather forecast says it would rain, it definitely won’t rain. If they say, the day will be sunny, high chance that it will rain cats and dogs. Fortunately, the accuracy of weather prediction has come a long way and it isContinue reading “So I recently read: Same as Ever”
So I recently read: The People of Indus
To atone for the crime of watching the movie ‘Mohenjo Daro’, that too alone in a theatre, I will read 2000 books related to Indus Valley Civilization, I had promised. This is 1st of such. Just kidding. There are not many interesting books about Indus Valley Civilization anyway. Growing up with Comics and working asContinue reading “So I recently read: The People of Indus”
So I recently read: THE BEE, THE BEETLE AND THE MONEY BUG
When I was growing up, discussions of shares and stocks, Interest Rates, Sensex, and Money in general, were as alien to me, as Machiavellianism is to Rahul Gandhi. In my family, the discussions at the dinner table were mostly related to *wait-for-it* just dinner. On the contrary, some of my close friends knew about allContinue reading “So I recently read: THE BEE, THE BEETLE AND THE MONEY BUG”
