Like the flowing river

I like this author very much - Paulo Coelho, somewhere i find in his writing a spark that ignites you , a hope that gives you something to inspire about, a dream to relish.

This one is not a novel but a collections of his articles published across the time. It gives a insight to the evolution of master writer to a great writer. Most of the articles relates to his daily life happening. But some stand apart for their messages like 'the story of the pencil','the missing brick' , 'the story of manuel' ...etc.

While reading this one, i have made up some dreams to follow - like to have stroll across copacabana beach, window shop through the madrid streets and to learn one or two chopin sonatas - even though i don't know how to play a piano - :)

Only when one reads Paulo that we come to know there are so many things hidden in every sec of our life, and that most of the time we overlook them. He makes us realize the beauty of small things that makes this life really a happy journey. To give a message that resound the test of time in less than half a page - only this guy can do it and i don't know how he delivers it over and over again in this 232 paged book.

I liked it and moreover i think i will not forget one or two articles because if then what else does paulo coelho stand for ????

Anything for you, Maam

An interesting and funny fantasy by an IITian, oops not yet, an IIT student. The guy can be pardoned for poor narration and a poor theme which contains a lot coincidence which are a lot like 'out of box' .

Tejas Narula is deeply in love with his sisters friend Shreya. The Hero resides in Delhi and is an IITian where as the babe is in chennai. The story is all about the planning Tejas make to meet his love of his life in chennai. The other and non interesting characters are Pappi(Prof. Siddhu), whose dream is to make a bus(Biobull) that run on shit, Rajit( his brother in law ) who he happens to meet on the train, Payal and sneha ( his two sis) . With a lot of strange things like three IITian of different era and all going to same marriage coming accidentally together in coup(train) makes the story an illusion or rather hallucination of 'Tushar Raheja"

I think every guy in IIT is after Chetan Bhagat, oh btw Tushar is also a Delhi IITian. No wonder why he thought of writing .

Well to be honest - The read was disgusting.
