On the books front, I have been busy with short stories of Ruskin Bond and more recently Chitra Banerjee Divakurni. I read somewhere, that short stories are tougher to write, as within a few pages, the writer has to catch the reader's attention, and make reading it worthwhile. Ruskin Bond's work conjures up beautiful images of the region around Nainitaal.And finally, I got Rushdie's Midnight Children issued from the library. Having heard so much about his work, and especially this one, I am looking forward to reading this. In fact, his Haroun and the Sea of stories was very imaginative and I enjoyed it.
On my way to work, I get to see the beach everyday. I love this part of my journey. One can see the different moods of the weather reflected in the sea.
