@nkarthik … ???? left a deep impression on him and shades of all his lead characters are influenced by that. Here it probably peaks.

More aspirational than anything — my classes are winding down, and I figured I’d dust the blog back up again.

what did “Priya’s” comment put you off that much?

Or are you truly busy? You should write more– I like your writing more than your reviews.

Comment on Raining Sardines, Talking Cats by Moiz Rajkotwala

Hey Karthik,

I just finished reading Kafka on the shore yesterday. As most of us, I turned to internet to checkout if there was some sense behind the madness, maybe I was missing a point. As one of the commentators said, It seemed to me as if author was playing with me. Nyway amongst of the reviews and analysis on the web, I enjoyed reading, and liked your’s the best. You don’t devolve into trying to explain the unexplainable, but at the same time are right to point out that the book is a fun read. I agree. May be thats the point of it. Its a dream, elements of it allude to various physical, nonphysical aspects of existance.. but on whole there is not neccesarily a bigger picture. Its a fun read, thats that.

Yikes, it looks like in your time away you forgot to write. What was this garbage? You need to put aside the mouse and start reading real books written by real people to understand what ‘real’ writing is. This is shit.

Thanks folks. I’m hoping to write regularly, but given my past record I won’t blame you if you laugh loudly.

Welcome back.
Or should it be, welcome back, with a ‘?’?
Um.
Never did tape songs…dunno why. But I did eagerly wait for the move from 12 inches of Keltron B&W TV to second-hand Solidaire 15 inches TV with its own wooden cabinet and sliding doors. All for Oliyum OLiyum. And sunday movies.
