What is the caste of a criminal? Crime. What is the religion of a terrorist? Terror. What is the creed of a politician? Politics. Who are you and me? Firewood to cook crime, terror, & politics. #amwriting #wip #quote #bibliophile #bookstagram Death is a cruel, and a magnificent enemy, it always wins; yet, we can strive to be immortal through our equally magnificent deeds. When Breath Becomes Air is a memoir written by the late neurosurgeon Paul Kalanithi, in which he contemplates about death and life, faith and doubt.(From: https://bhupendrawrites.com/2017/07/02/when-breath-becomes-air-by-paul-kalanithi-a-book-review/) #book #bookstagram #bookreview After leaving/ghosting Donna Tartt for a few weeks, and nearing the end of Paul Kalanithi, these in the pic came in the mail yesterday. Hence, on the horns of a (good) dilemma! #thehandmaidstale #dracula #acaseofexplodingmangoes #thereluctantfundamentalist #bookstagram #bibliophile #books #atwood #reading Sometimes we need to talk to people whose ideas we despise, just to learn why they adhere to those views. To fight something, and to defeat it, talks are necessary. Solipsism looks good, in philosophy books only. #thinking #amwriting #books #quote #wip Finally started The Goldfinch. #donnatartt #bookstagram #newread #bibliophile #goodreads #expectationsarehigh #longreads Re-reading an old favourite on a Monsoon day. #bookstagram #goodreads #salinger #book #reading #pigeons #clouds #rain #monsoon #reading #catcherintherye
