Last week read Anita Desai's Diamond Dust. I tried to gather some more information about the author and found that she happens to be one of the bigger names in the Indian fiction realm. This multiple-time 'Booker Prize' winner, is typically famous for the strong portrayal of her characters. However, I found her stories in Diamond Dust extremelyyyy depressing. Guess, I still haven't learnt to appreciate genuine works of fiction (sic! I feel sad) Have begun reading "Candy is Dandy" by Odgen Nash*. This gentleman I understand revolutionised the rules of spellings and grammar in poetry. 'Candy is Dandy' is funny It is worth the munny * some poems of Nash here
