ABOUT THE BOOK
This is a book that would disrupt our notion of the literary genre….These are not just stray, haphazard jottings strung together; they are meticulously taken down notes – mostly field notes – with a great eye for details and a near spontaneous poetic rendition of them lending a vivid imagery. There’s another feature to these notes: they are not clinically arranged lines cold and dry…. (they) reverberate with a tone of intimacy, that of the spoken word. Reading the lines here gives a feel of sitting within the close circle of a conversationalist, the words an indicator to the emotions of the speaker – be it sarcasm towards human greed and follies or outright irritation to human absurdity or the fear that emanates from a sense of the non-human unknown that lies beyond the grasp of the rational mind. And the strength of the emotions in these words comes from the fact that it is a book written with passion.
A delightful book for the rambler at heart, rambling in the old-fashioned sense of the word, not aided by the satellite-enabled gadgets of today.
