True, but you know, Shailaja, there is nothing like holding a nice leather bound volume in your hands, with gold lettering on the spine, and a silk marker! There is the scent of the leather and the solid paper to add to the appeal of the contents!

I have a fair collection of such beautifully bound English, French and German classics that I bought on my first posting abroad, in Geneva, over 40 years ago. They were affordable then, even on a junior diplomat's salary.Then I inherited my nana's collection as well. It is a treat just to look at them.

Incidentally, in Lamb's essays, do you remember the one in which his sister and he save up to buy the folio edition in the bookseller's window that they covet for weeks before they can get the funds together? How they must have treasured it and rejoiced in it afterwards!

It's the same with me. I do what I like and love. During my childhood my entire world must have revolved round books and Carnatic classical music. I used to sing a lot and even accompanied my mother who is a Carnatic vocalist for many of her concerts as a second singer. Nowadays, the minute I open my mouth to sing, my kid son starts shouting, "No song! No sound!" He isn't interested in books either. Even if he is, they interest him only regarding how many pages he can tear out of them or how many thousand pieces he can make out of the pages and scatter them all over the room. During childhood, whenever my father used to go for any conferences or seminars, the only thing I wanted back from the trip was a beautiful picture story book. My kid is a Terminator of any kind of books. Don't know what he is going to do after he grows up.

Most illogical part is nand trying to attack maghadh just with three members in his hand and he is screaming in two names chandra or chanakya each time he failed in his attempt. Finally he came up with the popular tragedy to get the advantage of chanakya's durbalta. His week point must be his wife and daughter. This will not bring him to slay down chanakya or he will conquer maghadh but will add another entry to the queue of those who falls for Chandra, as a result of some rescue missions.
