To Kill a Mockingbird

I first read this book when I was in college and have re-read it many times since. And have loved it more everytime.

A book about racial and cultural discrimination, told through the eyes of Scout, a six year old girl. Her co-conspirators are her brother Jem and friend Dill.

Atticus is the kind of guy you have to admire for being an unorthodox dad and a honest lawyer.

This coming-of-age book is my all time favourite.

The best of Roald Dahl

His stories seem complete. There is perfect balance in the action and reaction, the cause and effect. Nowhere you feel that something has been unfair, just for the sake of making you upset or happy. All this with an unimaginable twist in the end.

The characters behave weirdly. I mean wot do you say about a wife who let’s her husband die in the house and goes for a trip abrod. If you hear it out of context it seems weird but while reading the story I somehow actually supported the wife!

As if he can control your mind and make you feel the way he wants to; many times sinister & wily.
But then isn’t that what a great writer would do.
