Suresh Subrahmanyan draws freely from his life experiences to present this compendium of acutely observed columns. His m tier, humour and satire, and his abiding love for the English language, resonate on every page. He delves nostalgically into his childhood, ruminating on, among other things, boarding school escapades and a wide spectrum of music that saturates his life. He paints a vivid portrait of India's contrariness with a light brush, warts and all. Politics, sport, the arts, current affairs and selective autobiography - they are all grist to the author's mill. As he himself says, 'I write for fun. If the reader is amused, it's a bonus'. Suresh Subrahmanyan is refreshingly different from others of his ilk. He is known for his eclectic tastes, partial to wit and satire, a cricket tragic (in Aussie parlance) and an aficionado of music of varied genres. Small wonder that he has been a regular columnist in leading newspapers. His writings, covering a wide range of subjects, come as a breath of fresh air. This delightfully humorous collection of his choicest columns, impeccably written, will lift the reader's spirits. N.
