black-and-white fountain: Healer: the biography of Dr Prathap Chandra Reddy by Pranay Gupte
http://blackandwhitefountain.blogspot.com/2014/05/healer-biography-of-dr-prathap-chandra.html
Healer: the biography of Dr Prathap Chandra Reddy by Pranay Gupte. A friend sent me this message a short while ago, something she saw on facebook:. Does anyone know who Saaz Aggarwal is? Well, let me tell you: She's a Pune-based writer who "reviewed" my biography, Healer: Dr Prathap Chandra Reddy and the Transformation of India. Penguin) for Hindustan Times. In my opinion, I wonder if she actually read the 600-page book. For example, she says I did not deal with health insurance! What I wrote was a measu...

The Songbird on my Shoulder: November 2011
http://songbirdonmyshoulder.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 29, 2011. On the road with Ravi. In those days, there were less people on the road, although perhaps not significantly more courteous. It was so long ago that even when you added up our ages you were still only in the teens. There were no elephants on the British motorways either. At Kew Gardens in April 2011. 8221; over and over – a welcome change from “Are we there yet? Monday, November 14, 2011. Pain, drama, true-life learning. Photo by Ayesha Monani Broacha for Verve in 1996. Under ...

black-and-white fountain: The Prince and the Sannyasi by Partha Chatterjee
http://blackandwhitefountain.blogspot.com/2014/06/the-prince-and-sannyasi-by-partha.html
The Prince and the Sannyasi by Partha Chatterjee. This is the fascinating story of a man who died and later reappeared. Well, maybe it wasn’t him. But somebody appeared claiming to be him. Discussions, rumours, sworn statements, legal battles and nearly a century later, we are no closer to the truth. Could the naked sannyasi be him? Labels: * Buy . View my complete profile.

The Songbird on my Shoulder: October 2011
http://songbirdonmyshoulder.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 24, 2011. Home out of range. If you lived, say, in Los Angeles, and commuted to work, the most relaxing part of your day would be the journey home. BOMBAY CLICHÉS: Ladies Compartment (Collection of Smita Sheth). So I got myself a lovely little place in Town (yes, truth they say is often stranger than fiction), about as far from work as my former home was from the station, and moved. Two-and-a-half hours of travelling time saved every day, and god knows how many calories of energy. I w...

black-and-white fountain: Train to Delhi by Shiv K. Kumar
http://blackandwhitefountain.blogspot.com/2013/08/train-to-delhi-by-shiv-k-kumar.html
Train to Delhi by Shiv K. Kumar. So the river had three banks. This book gives a strong sense of life on the streets during one of the most important periods of our recent history. It shows the rejoicing of common people along with their frustration against their corrupt and illogical new rulers. One of the things it highlights is the innate Indian tendency to adapt and contrive. I went back to Train to Pakistan. And yet, I found these books very different from each other. Train to Delhi.

black-and-white fountain: Atisa and his time machine (Adventures with Hieun Tsang) by Anu Kumar
http://blackandwhitefountain.blogspot.com/2014/12/atisa-and-his-time-machine-adventures.html
Atisa and his time machine (Adventures with Hieun Tsang) by Anu Kumar. History as fun-filled adventure. Please tell us about your concept of writing history for children in story form. I guess it began from a short story in comic form I wrote first. This was about a time traveller, actually called Pedro, who ended up in Akbar's palace in Fatehpur Sikri and impressed him with a telescope that was originally Galileo's. The name actually comes from Atisa Dipankara Srijnana. My editor and I tossed up var...

black-and-white fountain: The Six Spellmakers of Dorabji Street by Shabnam Minwalla
http://blackandwhitefountain.blogspot.com/2014/06/the-six-spellmakers-of-dorabji-street.html
The Six Spellmakers of Dorabji Street by Shabnam Minwalla. I read somewhere that Shabnam Minwalla had written a ‘charming’ book, and pondered for a while on how the well-meant adjective could easily be construed as patronising. Anyway, that was the word that led me to read this book – and I did indeed find myself charmed. And Alice in Wonderland. Had done in their time, many-many years ago, and I felt sorry when I’d turned the last page and had to reluctantly put it down. In fact, I felt myself...It won ...
