Serendipity : it just happens ?!
About me :
|
|
Interest & Hobbies : My Plantation, and Music, and Reading, and Stargazing. and Daydreaming (still!!), and Bird-watching, and the Internet, and ... Everything ... and ... Nothing. |
|
Favorite Music & Artists : Eclectic. Anything, without bias, that has rhythm, melody and harmony. I do have preferences, too long to list. Do suffer from episodic fixation on Len Cohen! |
|
Favorite Books & Authors : No favorites. Will read anything I find interesting. And have. Mainly into non-fiction nowadays. Suggested reading : Pavan Varma's "The Great Indian Middle Class"., not quite the latest, but still very very relevant. Most recently read: Bill Bryson's captivating "The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid - Travels through my Childhood" and Mohsin Hamid's minimalist "The Reluctant Fundamentalist". Presently re-reading Richard Dawkins' exhilarating "The God Delusion" and laboring thru Tariq Ali's 'The Clash of Fundamentalisms' |
|
Favorite Movies, Actors & Directors : No favorites, but the first movie vc I bought was "My Fair Lady" and the second "The Sound of Music". I do love Woody Allen and Roman Polanski movies and English musicals. And I am not star-struck; my stars are up in the sky! |
