Jay's oeuvre: NDTV's Book corner

NDTV's Book corner
Saturday, July 08, 2006

I don have much of patience to finish off books.So, to fuel my reading habits I resort to articles, essays, book reviews, etc and the sources would be newpapers, magazines and web resources.

NDTV has already become a phenomenon by capturing the so called Indian elite.As I dont watch much of TV these days, I visit the site.

It caters with a gamut of interesting categories.. a few days back I was bugged by its' books section. Apart from regular happenings in the literary world.. .. it gives one the opportunity to visit the reading room. There u find the savior of a lazy bum like me .."the book extracts"...the peephole owrth reading.
I read some extracts from books .. and I liked three confessions of an economic hit man,The Argumentative Indian and Ideas That Have Worked .
Yep .. NDTV presents the right blend of Indian and International literature..
Hmmm, as expected non fictions rule the roost.
Wish I could really indulge in reading the whole books, the extracts of which hold so much promise (definitely would be betta than watching a superman returns).
