Thursday, June 24, 2010 ![]() The unbearable Lightness of being 9/55 Have you ever read a book that make you heave a sigh of amazement and say "If this is the only book i ever read in my life...it is enough." This is it. this book flows like a poetry ringing in the dawn of spring. The cry of a wretched revolutionary. The tinkle of laughter from the child's gleeful luscious lips. The blood shed of young soldiers on the bullet-sweeping battle-field. It is MUD and it is Flamboyant Flowers right at the same time. The philosophy and the depth of it overwhelms me as a person. Reading this book...I feel overwhelmingly anachronistic. like people of another era or space of existential goodness...i walk on the space on this earth like the players of a Shakespearean play. We all have our entrances and exits. We exist for 7 acts. Sometimes for a shorter period of time. This book leaves me speechless. It is a tool of escapism as well as a tool of realism. Ratings: This book is beyond ratings. |
