Even so I had to learn, and unlearn, many things about caste while completing my two most recent books: the novel Ghost in the Tamarind, which narrates an inter-caste romance between a Brahmin man and a Dalit woman against the backdrop of powerful anti-caste movements in southern India and a co-edited collection of academic essays on caste and life narratives.

I grew up in India living the reality of caste every day. It is not just one of the most prominent social features of India it is at the heart of many of the past and present fissures of the country. Nevertheless, to understand India you have to understand caste, whose intricacies are unarguably difficult. The writer’s symbiotic credo is: You read, therefore we exist.Caste is not unique to India, and no country should be reduced to a single social category, no matter how intrinsic a part of its reality. By such an affirmation the writer’s own existence is predicated on the logically prior existence of the reader.ĭescartes said: I think, therefore I am, a statement which leads only into the blind alley of self-conscious solipsism. Writing is an affirmation that an other, the reader, must exist. The writer – be it of a novel, a poem, a postcard, a text message: How r u? C u l8r – by the very act of writing affirms the existence of a reader, the one for whom the writer has written. To someone like Borges, who sowed the seeds of his penned thoughts to reap a random harvest from the minds of men very dissimilar to him in almost every respect, the action at a distance, the gravitational bond, was to be found in the written word used as a bridge to span the separateness that encloses us, islands in the river of life. What is this action at a distance, this force of gravity that can connect two or more people and turn them into a gestalt, an entity which is larger than the sum of its individual parts? What was called action at a distance in the physical world has a parallel in the realm of human consciousness. What impelled the aspiring writer to seek communion with those whose worlds, both outer and inner, were so very different from his?īefore Newton explicated the workings of gravity, scientists and philosophers described gravitational phenomena as ‘action at a distance’, Effect B being linked to cause A with no discernible connection between the two. When he was a young, struggling writer in Buenos Aires, Jorge Luis Borges would haunt working men’s bars and cafes of an evening and, surreptitiously, secret in the pockets of their jackets and coats hanging by the doorway copies of the poems he had written, on the chance that the sheets of paper would be discovered, and read, before being thrown away. However, could there be a non-commercial reason behind the modus operandi of The Fussy Librarian?

The Fussy Librarian could be an example of a loss leader sales strategy. The seller of any product, from a new brand of instant coffee to a range of cosmetics, will put on special sale an item at a loss-making price as a hook to attract future buyers at much higher prices. In marketing argot, this is what is called a ‘loss leader’.

#TELUGU NOVELS FREE FREE#
So, how come there is such a thing as a free read? The answer is that the writers who participate in the scheme want to attract as many free readers as possible, in the hope that at least some of them will in future become cash-paying customers of their works, paving the way for the authors’ ascent to bestsellerdom. We are constantly reminded that there is no such thing as a free lunch. The list on offer, which changes every week, generally consists of thrillers, mysteries, and romantic novels, all by relatively little-known authors, and you can select as many as you like for no charge at all. There is an internet group called The Fussy Librarian whose members can get to read and keep a weekly selection of e-books for free.
