    Hey Asuph, u asked about "Beach Boy". Yes it was ssm's reco and I did read it. It's a nice coming-of-age novel set in Bombay in 60's (I think). Its quite a charming novel.

    What all Amitav Ghosh's book but no "Shadow Lines" ?? Why , why why?? I have just read Ghosh's Shadow Lines and Hungry Tide. Was not so impressed with Hungry tide but Shadow Lines is amazing.. Re-reading it these days..

    Hi!, This is Rahee, Amit's wife. I just had a look at your book shelf and saw some of Amitva Ghosh books. I always wanted to read him, but never had the opportunity. You seem to be enjoying his writing, as you have read quite a few of his books. What is your opinion abt his writing? Where should I start?
