This is one of the best “about” sections I have ever read. Don’t ask me why, I don’t know exactly why.

It made me smile. I guess that’s reason enough.

Adi: Welcome! And thanks! When I wrote it, I thought it was pretty ordinary!

And you bought it online or in Chennai if I can ask?

Adi: I didn’t. My friend got it in Chennai.

Adi: YEs, collapsedlight tends to do that. As we all know.

This is the first time I’ve received instructions on how to read a book. Or do your several caveats implicitly state … something else?

Adi: Lol, some people need it.

well lets just wait for them to make a movie out of the book for the benefit of people like us!

plus multiple bookmarks, revisiting etc seems like a lotta wrk, but then you seem to like it so GFU!

Adi: Lol, did you read nandu’s comment?! But I think this is just too complicated for them to make a movie out of. Not sure.

In 2005, TIME included this book in the list of 100 best English novels. I picked up this book after reading that article and I still have a quarter of the book remaining to be read. As you can tell, I’m an extremely slow reader.

Adi: Yep, it was included in that list!

I read about on the net a few days ago.
Unfortunately, Blore stores don’t have a copy.

Adi: My friend struggled to find a copy in Chennai. It’s a mystery to me!

Not bad .. that was pretty fast , all things considered.
Agree on most of your points , except

“If something is missing from the initial few hundred pages, then don’t fret. They will start making sense soon.”

It may make sense , but its upto u to construct how some of the stuff came to be ( dont wanna post what parts here ) , maybe ur imagination is just better than mine :P

Also

“I’ll revisit this book two to three years later to see how well it reads then. I have no doubt that it would hold its own and be as lipsmackingly good as it is now.”

I think it will be better , the second time round.

Adi: Haha, I agree. And I was going through the forums at Infinite Summer only to realize how crazy some of their imagination can get!

I quite like his short stories too. By way of being published at Playboy this might be NSFW but nonetheless makes for a good read. Adi: Thanks for that!

I bought this yesterday. So not reading your post.

P.S.- Max is not going to, either :D I know. And he will invariably say he doesn’t understand a thing this post. But – will come since I have said this.

Aah, at least I drive traffic to your site no? ;)

Adi: Lol, I am pretty sure he is going to comment something like that!
