മലയാളം പുസ്തകവായനക്കാരുടെ കൂട്ടായ്മയില് ഒരു പോസ്റ്റിട്ടിട്ടുണ്ട്.
shalimar the clown ഞാന് വായിച്ചിട്ടില്ല . ഷെല്ഫില് വന്നുവോ ?ആനന്ദിന്റെ വായന എവിടെ വരെയെത്തി ? 'ജൈവമനുഷന്' നല്ല പഠനമാണ്.വി പി ശിവകുമാര്, സക്കറിയ, സി വി ശ്രീരാമന് തുടങ്ങിയവരെ വായിക്കണമെന്നു കരുതിയിട്ട് ഇതു വരെ നടന്നിട്ടില്ല. വിക്ടര് ലീന്സിനേയും, ഇനി ശ്രമിക്കണം
ഇവിടെ വന്ന് അഭിപ്രായം രേഖപ്പടുത്തുമോ !!!http://www.shelfari.com/groups/22337/discussions/40699/%e0%b4%ae%e0%b4%b2%e0%b4%af%e0%b4%be%e0%b4%b3%e0%b4%a4%e0%b5%8d
I'll look for Shadow lines as I've yet to read that one, nor have I read Nostromo. But, from other novels by Conrad and Ghosh, I think they have their finger on the contrasts and conflicts of social struggle when dichotomies exist. And they certainly acknowledge man's inherant goodness and evilness, hope and despair.
Did you like Sea of Poppies? I love a good adventure story, especially when it takes me to the sea. Did you have to read Moby Dick in school? Another classical epic storytelling at its finest. Like Conrad, Melville takes one deep into the soul of man, revealing the dichotomy of good and evil that lies in is all.

I notice that you're reading The bastard of Istanbul, isn't it pretty good? I love the descriptions of food, and there is something sticky going on, but you just can't put your finger on it. Please let me know when you've finished it. Enjoy reading and hope to look forward to chatting with you about your impressions....--another reader of good books
