Fountainhead!

.... one of the greatest books i have ever read... when i first saw it... seeing the size.. i said... 'Ummmm.... I dont think'...but somehow i started...and i soon found the idea of objectivism... was just what the doctor ordered for me.... thus began a journey with Ayn Rand...

she managed to create a whole group of followers with her "Atlas Shrugged" and "Fountainhed"..

.. the philosophy that u get from this book is amazing... one should read this book at every stage of one's life... and the philosphy that one gets each time is different... amazing no....?????

Old Books, Old Memoirs - The Fountainhead

and I connect with bloggers at BlogAdda.com 1989 it was, and I was a petite 12 year old, and I along with my classmates, a group of 45 students, in our Seventh Grade.   We were part of the Bharathamatha Family, a Christian Missionary Convent, when this young and vivacious teacher took charge of our English Class.   Her Name was Sushma Menon and when she entered, the whole of 40 boys were awed by her charm.   Little did we know that she was married and not ‘just out of college’ as we had thought when we first saw her. Anyhow, the first class it has been, and as usual she started with introductions, first with herself and then asking us each one to introduce ourselves and then tell her as also the rest of us about our reading habits.   So we were to tell our names, and the book that we were currently reading. So we started one by one.   Ironically, we were not avid readers then, and even if some of us (including me!) read anything, we just about graduated to...

The 3 Mistakes of my Life!!

Last sunday, I was on my usual mall crawling and shoppin spree, and out of my inclination, I stepped into the corner bookshop. My idea was to pick up the new Chetan Bhagat novella, the 3 Mistakes of my life. When I was about to pay up, I discovered to my delight, as his earlier books, this one too..cost very little just 95 bucks...! These days, a movie in a multiplex in delhi costs about 200 bucks, add to that a bucket of popcorn and a mug of cola, and with that money, I could buy all three of his books, still saving me some for my grub! But quite unlike the movie at the multiplex, the book is delighting, fresh and just out of the stable...and as usual, just like in his earlier books, Chetan Bhagat indulges in some preaching too and yes of course on his fav topic.. self-development. if on first time it was the Three IIT'ians, and then it were the five Call Centres', this time it is the turn of three friends from Ahmedabad, who are inturn bonded together with the three things ...
