My bookshelf

I am devoted to reading. I find few things as pleasing as cuddling up in bed with a good book.

A book is lot more than the words printed on it. The texture of the pages. The smell of paper and ink. The soul of the writer captured in a few leaves attached to a smooth spine. The awareness of this. Ah! That’s what I call bliss.

My bookshelf is a delightful mélange of books ranging from Physics and Mathematics to Philosophy and Poetry, through Humour and Psychology.

Ten of my current favourites are:

1. The English Patient by Michael Ondaatje
2. Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand
3. The Last Song of Dusk by Siddharth Dhanvant Shanghvi
   
4. The Line of Beauty by Alan Hollinghurst
5. Midnight’s Children by Salman Rushdie
   
6. Women in Love by D.H. Lawrence
7. Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman
8. The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time by Mark Haddon
   
9. One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
10. Everybody Loves A Good Drought by P. Sainath
