And after reading the book I was kind of overwhelmed. Inspired by the review, I took out the book from my bookshelf and finally read it. The review reminded me of the book which I accidentally bought. Then some days back, I came across a review on the same title, written by my friend. I came home and arranged all the books I bought on my bookshelf as always. Till that time I haven’t heard much about the author, Amitav Ghosh, so I was little hesitant to buy that book, but he (the bookseller) insisted me twice and I eventually nodded my head in a yes after reading the blurb. One of the shopkeepers suggested to me “The Hungry Tide” title. ![]() ![]() It was somewhere in 2014, I don’t exactly remember the month but yes it was certainly in 2014 when on one Sunday, I went to the local book market to get some classics and mythological books. When I think of how I got this book, I genuinely thank the bookseller for suggesting me this lovely title. There are many incidents which we forget but when remembered, they bring a sweet smile on our face. ![]()
