  1. @Svara yes, and how was yours? hope the little one is no longer attracted to toy guns like before.
  2. My friend @sathnam knows how to enjoy himself: "Am having a drink in a pub called The BlAck Boy. That's the name."
  3. @Sathnam I was going to get you a lifetime subscription to the Guardian. Know how much you'd enjoy that.
  4. @Sathnam was thinking abt u writing on cars & not having one. When u covered the bond market with such brilliance did you own any bonds?
  5. Ms Tripathi says she's seen a positive review of the new Theroux novel so I haven't looked enough, clearly: @amritat
  6. @dsivakumar Thanks
  7. @bwdaly Thanks, that's very nice of you.
  8. Hiranmay Karlekar, former editor of HT, is a well-known ethical vegetarian. Most Indians do it for traditional reasons, though.
  9. Thanks @TristanCarrasco for this: "The Slaughterer" by IB Singer comes to mind. He gave a lecture at my University--right before lunch.
  10. @TristanCarrasco Yes, I've read that: it's a terrifying work.
  11. The Yiddish writer IB Singer also made a passionate ethical case for vegetarianism: for animals, he said, every day is a Treblinka
  12. @PritishNandy I like Ray's Mahanagar for its sense of the city; I thought his Benaras was superb in Aparajito

  14. A book on our eating habits: http://latimesblogs.latimes...
  15. Without my friend Akash Shah of Jaico Books and his wonderful family this novel couldn't have been written.
  16. Also wanted to thank @svara & @satishacharya for their support.
