The 3 mistakes of my life

“The 3 mistakes of my life” is written simply and has the quality that makes one want to read the book cover to cover in one sitting. The pricing of the book is just right for the target audience - young people. This book like Bhagat’s earlier one, “One night @ call centre," too has the masala, emotion and pace to turn into a potential blockbuster.

The book is based on real life events. It begins in a dramatic enough fashion with Bhagat receiving an e-mail from Govind who had taken many sleeping pills and was writing to him while waiting for the deadly sleep’s embrace. Chetan was shaken enough by the incident to track the boy down to an Ahmedabad hospital. Fortunately he was still alive to tell the tale. The book is loosely based on the three mistakes Govind made in his life.

Movie Review : The Chronicles of Narnia - Prince Caspian

I went to watch "The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian" on saturday. It was a nice Movie. The characters where more developed which connected to the audience giving a more intimate inclination. There were more action sequences which lasted much longer than the first movie. The special effects were more realistic. The stunning visual settings add an additional amount of realism. I would highly recommend this movie if you liked the first but expected more.

A House for Mr Biswas

A House for Mr Biswas is a 1961 novel by V. S. Naipaul, significant as Naipaul's first work to achieve acclaim worldwide. It is the story of Mr Mohun Biswas, an Indo-Trinidadian who continually strives for success and mostly fails, who marries into the Tulsi family only to find himself dominated by it, and who finally sets the goal of owning his own house.

Drawing some elements from the life of Naipaul's father, the work is primarily a sharply-drawn look at life in a fledgling postcolonial world.

Naipaul’s father, Seepersad, is the prototype forMr. Biswas. Both the real man and the fictional Biswas were born in a village; lived with wealthy relatives; worked as a sign painter; married into a conservative, well-to-do Hindu family; held a series of jobs; and wandered from home to home. LikeMohun Biswas, Seepersad Naipaul found work on a newspaper after moving to Port of Spain.
