Pygmalion by G.B. Shaw

What made me buy the book – this book was part of my course curriculum in Loyola College

What I liked about the book – emphasis on the pronunciation and the the way a human is treated by Henry Higgins

Who will I recommend the book to – any non serious reader who would like to have a jolly good time

What did the book teach me – to pronounce the letter ‘H’ properly

Grand Delusions by Indrajit Hazra

What made me buy the book – the tag line of the book

What I liked about the book – the strange sense of familiarity with which the writer tours us around Kolkata, making us feel like we are revisiting our home town, when in fact, it is a town as alien as Area 51

Who will I recommend the book to – any non Bengali who’d like to know this heritage city, and to every Bengali who’d like to revive the mired memories

What did the book teach me – revisiting our roots isn’t that bland as I thought
