Hi all,
A very happy New Year to all of you. Welcome to Twenty Ten. Never mind that its midway into January; new year wishes are always welcome. But in a way its funny. All of us know that life is a bundle of happiness and sorrow, often unequally and undemocratically distributed among years indicating clearly that all new years cannot be equally ‘happy’; yet at the stroke of midnight on 31st December we sincerely wish a happy new year to all we know.
Perhaps that’s what a new year churns out of you—your optimism, your best, your life-affirming force even in the face of imminent crises. Cheers to life.
One more thing: two of my long awaited publications in the form of chapters in edited books saw the light of day by end 2009—
- An essay on Dattani’s Final Solutions in “Final Solutions: Text and Criticism” edited by Angelie Multani published by Pencraft International.
- An essay on Bhagat's One Night @ the Call Centre in "Social Consciousness in Postcolonial Indian Fiction in English" edited by Partha Mukhopadhyay published by Sarup and Sons.
