A Thousand Splendid Suns
HI Anjaline. To a certain extent I agree with you, but that’s the obvious part. What I find (misleading) is the other baggage which is smuggled along with the main narrative, and which often goes unnoticed. …esp the absences and in the subtle manner in which distortions are introduced behind the ongoing drama. And all this is put there keeping in mind not the Asian audience, or for that matter an Afghan (for whom the novel means nothing) but for typical American ones.
-and Yes, you are right about Mariam.
cheers

WHAT AILS INDIAN EDUCATION
Hi Avinashjee
I will be very honest with you. First, I was very happy to be out of school.
Second, every thing that was worth learning I learnt from sources outside of the schooling apparatus.
At the age of 8, I was presented the world best stories in tale. It contained all the abridged versions of world classics.
This was my introduction to world literature. And it were these little presents that awakened the faculties necessary for my self development.
When I won the national quiz my teachers took all the credit, but it was the other teachers who were the real source of my nourishment.
So I think I kind of agree with you, but at the same time, when education is centrally controlled, and like a factory calculated to output mass produce, there is not much to think about.
Regards
Rajiv

An old man by the sea!
"So the old man sits by his sea
being swallowed up by his -cheap whisky
And as for the lady Oh! She’s fat!
jealously guarding her withering hats
and as for the poet, this dandy and delicately carving
his poems have made him, the new prince charming."
hee hee just playing
nice theme.
