"Back to back posts..not bad... in the past couple of years the frequency of posting was yearly.But creativity isn't timebound so why bother.Let the thoughts flow naturally.But its 3 am in the morning...need to reach office early tomorrow..."
While I was having this soliloquy I leaped back a couple of weeks.I picked up this book called "One Night @ Call Centre" by Chetan Bhagat.Well I have been hearing about this book for over a year now but didn't actually get a chance until recently.When I started reading the first few chapters and the thing that stuck me was the author's casual style.Its very non-literary and conversational.I instantly liked it and at no point in time did I feel the author was trying to drag a subject.Pretty fast paced.Honestly down the years I have somehow have lost a bit of patience.Thats reflects also in my reading habits.Probably becoz our falling attention span under the impact of gravity.What do you think having 100 channel in your TV does to you ? Shortens your attention span.
Coming back to the book lot of us (IT/BPO) connect to the context since it revolves around the BPO life.But the way he has potrayed the emotional sides of the characters and evolves the touchy moments without sacrificing the casual writing style was a refreshing change.I was so impressed I bought the other book by Chetan "Five point someone". Admittedly I wasn't disapointed at all.Infact I liked it more than the first one.Having been through a similar kinds of experience in Engg. was able to connect to the characters.
Nice one Chetan..Add one more to your fan list.
