Kushwant Singh

This time I’m going to share with you some very interesting book! Which is the first tamil biography book about Kushwant Singh!

The book is written by the young writer Mr.Chokkan. Eh! yeah the same guy who has written so many good books Narayana Murthy, Dhirubhai Ambani - A Business Legend, Bill gates, etc

Let’s move to the review.

Like other people, I also thought Kushwant Singh is a joke writer & a journalist. But after reading this book, I came to know that he has written so many very good novels!

This biography book starts with his family & siblings details. His grandfather and father was one of the key people in building the New Delhi city because they had good reputation with English people.

In the beginning of 20th century, the English people started building so many new houses, improving road facilities, new railway stations, etc. Sir sobha Singh (father of Kushwant) & his grandfather was part of the team to build the new city with more and more luxurious houses.

At that time the small boy Kushwant was with them in rounding the new city. Like all the good writers, he also not good in studies :-) He worked in so many jobs and got a big unsatisfaction!

The first key milestone book of his career is, “Mark of Vishnu”. The book not got good review! – But Kushwant was started getting famous from this book only!
He worked with so many popular newspapers as editor! – But he is very famous for his weekly column, "With Malice towards One and All".

Due to his popularity in writing, he became one of the member of Rajya Sabha and he was one of the very few people who strongly opposed the attack of Amritsar temple in 1984 (operation blue star).

More and more interest in writing made him to write so many good novels like:
Wait! – Before moving to it, I have two questions for you readers to answer. They are,

1. When he was strongly opposing the blue start operation, the only lady who supported him in the rajya sabha is?
2. What is the name of the holy book of Sikhs? – eh! don’t search in google 

See the answers in the last!

Short stories:
• Black Jasmine
• Mark of Vishnu
• The voice of god, etc

Novels
• I shall not hear the nightingale
• Train to Pakistan
• Delhi
• The company of women, etc

Key achievement / notable books of his career are:
1. History of Sikhs
2. Fall of sikh kingdom
3. Truth, Love and a Little Malice(an autobiography), 2002
4. With Malice towards One and All

He has no confident / interest in awards!

Every people who really interested to read, should read this book about Kushwant Singh! – The great columnist, novelist Kushwant Singh - one of the living legends. – Hari

The answer for the two questions are,
1. Ms.Jayalalitha, ex-cheif minister, tamilnadu
2. Granth sahib

ஜார்ஜ் வாஷிங்டன்

ஜார்ஜ் வாஷிங்டன் - வெகு நாட்களுக்கு பிறகு ஒரு மாபெரும் மனிதரின் வாழ்கை சரிதையை பற்றி படிக்கும் வாய்ப்பு எனக்குக்கிட்டியது. இந்த புத்தகத்தை படிக்கும் முன்பு எனக்கு இவரைப்பற்றி தெரிந்த ஒரே விஷயம் "இவர் தான் அமெரிக்காவின் முதல் அதிபர்.".

ஜார்ஜ் எப்படி ஒரு சாதரணமான குடும்பத்தில் பிறந்து, ஒரு நாட்டின் அதிபராக உயர்ந்தார் என்பதை சுவாரசியமாக விளக்குகிறது இந்த புத்தகம்.

ஒரு மாபெரும் மனிதரின் வாழ்க்கையை 120 பக்கங்களில் சுவாரசியமாக விளக்கி உள்ளார் இதன் ஆசிரியர் பாலு சத்யா.

தன் தந்தையிடம் இருந்து நேர்மையை, ஒழுக்கத்தை, போராடும் குணத்தை கற்று கொள்கிறான் சிறுவன் ஜார்ஜ். தன் அண்ணன் லாரன்ஸ் ராணுவ முகாமை பற்றியே பேசிக்கொண்டிருப்பதை பார்த்துத்தான் அவனுக்கு ராணுவத்தில் சேரும் ஆசை
பிறக்கிறது.

பல பிரச்சனைகளையெல்லாம் சந்தித்த பிறகு ராணுவத்தில் சேருகிறான் ஜார்ஜ். பல கடுமையான பயிற்சிளை எல்லாம் மேற்கொண்டு, தான் ஒரு சிறந்த ராணுவவீரன் என்பதை நிரூபிக்கிறான், கவர்னர் த்வின்த்யின் மூலம் அவரது படையில் இணைகிறான்.

எண்ணற்ற பல கடுமையான பிரச்சனைகளையும் , போர்களையும் சந்தித்து அதில் வெற்றியும் பெற்று தளபதி ஆகிறான்.

பாஸ்தன் தேநீர் விருந்து பற்றி மிக அற்புதமாக விளக்கியுள்ளார் இதன் ஆசிரியர்.

அதிபராக பொறுப்பேற்றவுடன் அவர் அறிவிக்கும் முதல் விதி - "தம் குடும்பதில் உள்ளவர்கள் யாரும் அரசு விவகாரங்களில் தலையிடக்கூடாது"

இதுதான் பிரிட்டிஷ் அரசுக்கு எதிராக அமெரிக்கர்கள் தொடுத்த முதல் போர். அந்த போரில் பிரிட்டிஷ் மரண அடி வாங்கியது. இத்தனைக்கும் அமெரிக்காவிடம் அவ்வளவு
பெரிய படை என்று ஒன்றும் கிடையாது.

அந்த போரில் அமெரிக்கப் படைகளை சார்ந்த 50 பேர் இறந்து போனார்கள். ஆனால் பிரிட்டிஷ் படையில் 73 பேர் இறந்து போனார்கள்.

எப்படி படிப்படியாக உயர்கிறார் அதிபராக என்பதை மிக அழகாக விளக்குகிறது இந்த புத்தகம்.

மினுமினுக்கும் வல்லரசு தேசமாக அமெரிக்கா இன்று அறியப்படுவதற்கான வலுவான அடித்தளத்தை ஏற்படுத்திய ஜார்ஜ் வாஷிங்டனின் பிரமிப்பூட்டும் சரித்திரம்.

One bright summer morning

This time I’m going to discuss with you about the book “One bright summer morning “which is written by James Hadley chase. Eh! – yes the same man who was the competitor of Writer sujatha in 197 0 - 1980s in Tamil nadu.

I’m searching for this book more than 4 months. Because, I would like to know,

Who is this James hardly chase?

What are all the books that he written?

Is he really equal to my man (sujatha)? - My answer for this question is at the end of this article.

I got this book from my brother. He told me very very clearly “other than the climax, the book will be good for you.” – So I started this book with a bad impression!

This book starts with Victor Dermott’s who is a drama writer. He stayed in a resort for a few days with his family members to write his next book. Unfortunately, a gang entered into his house with a kidnapped girl. They asked victor to demand the x amount from the father of that kidnapped girl! – This is the three line of this story :-)

Because, they don’t want their names to be known by anyone!
The perfect kidnap plan, the team forming, money to be demand with that girl’s daddy, responsibilities of each people in the team, etc would be taken care by a guy who was once a great smuggler and brain of this kidnap. Name of that guy is ?????? – get it from that book :-)

All the characters have been perfectly framed by the author. Especially the sr. police guy (Inspector j dennison) who probed this case, that old team member of that smuggler (Mo segathi), that beautiful girl (eh! find the name from book :-) ) and the body builder guy who was part of the smuggling team.

Some of the places I amazed about the writing! – Especially during the kidnap, that old team member’s planning. When police came there suddenly, at that time handling the things by that girl in kidnapped team and conversation was very nice!

I read this book in 3.5 hrs – very very fast and interesting book! Moving the story with the same tempo was very nice! – But it is missing in the last 40 pages!

During the important stage that smuggler cum brain of this kidnap died! – What the hell is this! The book started boring from this place -(

As I said, sorry my brother said in starting, the same final comment I would also like to share “other than the climax, the book will be good for you.”
Please read it! – Hari

Oh sorry! – Answer for the question asked in the starting, no one is equal to sujathaaaa!

The Alchemist

This time I come-up with a book which is in the list of world’s most sold books. As of my knowledge, already 70 million copies of this book are already sold.

The Alchemist - This book is written by the Brazilian writer Paulo Coelho. Already we have shared a review of this writer’s book “The Witch of Portobello”.

Do you know the meaning for the word alchemist? - If you know it already, please proceed the reading. If you don’t know, please find the meaning for the word before proceeding.

A boy named Santiago, a shepherd boy, who is trying to find his treasure located in pyramids. Coelho explained this story in the eyes of Santiago (the boy). The boy has a dream and started his journey with more interest and courage to get it. He is travelling in the deserts with more joy and curiosity to get his dream and seeing so many type of people and getting wisdom from others words and he himself.

Whether the boy’s tireless efforts made him to achieve the treasure? – That is the one line of this story.

During his journey, he met a lady who is teaching gyphs, a king who always used to say "when you really want something to happen, the whole universe conspires so that your wish comes true" & teaching him the real meaning for the word “wisdom and dream” – this made the boy to concentrate & creating confident to find his dream…

And a shop owner who gave him the money by getting efforts from the boy and saying his dream is yet not fulfilled. This is making the boy to think to that he should be in the list of people who achieved their dream & found their treasure.

The English man who is travelling with him searches the alchemists who are living in the deserts more than 200 yrs. The boy finally falls in love with the girl named fathima, she is also giving him more confident and send him to find his treasure. This is where the writer makes everyone to think “what is that treasure? Whether he finds it?” - Please read the story and find the answer.

Before finishing, I would like to tell a word that there is one more person who was
Travelling with the boy in the final days of his journey and teaching him what is the alchemist, where to find them, how they will look like, whether you are fulfilling all the steps properly to find you treasure, etc. Who is that man – find him in the book!

When you are reading this book, I’m sure you will find lot of interesting sentences, things, people, place & more.

This book makes you to understand the importance of your dream, happiness that will come when you get your treasure; it gives you a feel that you are reading a novel and a book to teach you to find your dreams! - Hari
