Wonder - what is rediff's priority
by One Liner on May 30, 2010 06:43 PM  | Hide replies

I wonder how come rediff is not giving any importance to the news of a Bus getting burnt with 30 people dead and 25 injured? Have the readers got used to such news that we do not care if the death is no where near hundred( is it 'cricket' mentality?)

Good reading

Excerpt makes for very good reading. Dark and mysterious with a touch of black humor. Better than usual IIT/IIM crap that Rediff displays. Is the book available in market?

from your name and writings you do not seem to be good enough reading either of the two. In any case do you read as well. And well, IIM/IIT may not be your class too !!!!!

The author's first book was very witty, pacy and thoughtful, different from the usual Chetan Bhagat brand of BS.

Lets see if he can sustain it this time. The excerpt looks kind of interesting.

I've read the first book. Its pretty good though not brilliant. But better than any book in that genre. Nothing to do with Chetan Bhagat's story or the Monk who sold his ferrari. Suggest you GOOGLE it LOL
