About this book
A Book Is Only One Text, But It Is Many Books. It Is A Different Book For Each Of Its Readers. My Anna Karenina Is Not Your Anna Karenina; Your A House For Mr Biswas Is Not The One On My Shelf. When We Think Of A Favourite Book, We Recall Not Only The Shape Of The Story, The Characters Who Touched Our Hearts, The Rhythm And Texture Of The Sentences. We Recall Our Own Circumstances When We Read It: Where We Bought It (And For How Much), What Kind Of Joy Or Solace It Provided, How Scenes From The Story Began To Intermingle With Scenes From Our Life, How It Roused Us To Anger Or Indignation Or Allowed Us To Make Our Peace With Some Great Private Discord. This Is The Second Life Of The Book: Its Life In Our Life.' In His Early Twenties, The Novelist Chandrahas Choudhury Found Himself In The Position Of Most Young People Who Want To Write: Impractical, Hard-Up, Ill At Ease In The World. Like Most People Who Love To Read, His Most Radiant Hours Were Inside The Pages Of A Book. Seeking To Combine His Love Of Writing With His Love Of Reading, He Became An Adept Of A Trade That Is Mainly Transacted Lying Down—That Is, He Became A Book Reviewer. Pleasure, Independence, Aesthetic Rapture, Even A Modest Livelihood: All These Were The Rewards Of Being A Worker Bee Of Literature, Ingesting The Output Of The Publishers Of The World In Great Quantities And Trying To Explain In The Pages Of NewReader reviews
