Manny
is on page 275 of 422 of Io Cleopatra. La regina ed il condottiero: It's such a bitch being a god empress. You need to take a portable throne with you for important voyages to foreign countries. And you can't sleep with a hunky absolute ruler without considering all the political consequences.

“Kashayam [was] a drink the vanaras had morning, noon and night, and a few times in between. It was a kind of brew with all kinds of herbs thrown in: the thick, sharp-tasting furry karpuravalli, the strong spicy tulsi, the slightly bitter bark of the coconut tree, pungent pepper roots, the breathcatching nellikai, the cool root of vetriver, and just about anything else that was considered edible. And some things that weren’t. In their craze for novelty, vanaras sometimes flung in new kinds of leaves or berries just because they smelt interesting; whole families had been known to fall ill, or even die. Gind’s family were not a very adventurous lot, and stuck to things they knew not to be poisonous. Still, every day’s kashayam was different, and this was a great topic of conversation among the vanaras.”

Rose plot,
Fringed pool,
Ferned grot--
The veriest school
Of peace”

“The only calibration that counts is how much heart people invest, how much they ignore their fears of being hurt or caught out or humiliated. And the only thing people regret is that they didn't live boldly enough, that they didn't invest enough heart, didn't love enough. Nothing else really counts at all.”

“There is no happiness for him who does not travel, Rohita!
Thus we have heard. Living in the society of men, the best man becomes a sinner… therefore, wander!… The fortune of him who is sitting, sits; it rises when he rises; it sleeps when he sleeps; it moves when he moves. Therefore, wander!”

Venkatesh is Shashwath's friend. They share their interest in South Indian history and particularly Ponniyin selvan apart from being VM alumni
Do you also gulp your food Harini in order to be able to "gulp two books in two days? I'm not surprised.
that's why i like google. i have been listening to all our old favourites on youtube - yellow ribon et al
It was the Google doodle of Thor Heyerdahl yesterday that set me off!
shackleton and Kon tiki still have their grip over you. somthings dont change
Thanks, Shobana! Whose daughter is she, and what's her name? I remember Vasudha, Sujan and Sunita very well. I'll gladly send her the other two books if you think she would enjoy them. Let me know.
was able to purchase balakand and gind on flipcart for my grand niece. vanuvati and zoo duck are not available. hope she likes them, she is quite small and can read a bit by herself. But i would love to read these two with her - maybe one chapter at a time.
