Beautiful line up Ila. You were convincing in forcing me to pickup anything written by Rushdie. I gave up on his writing after going through Midnight Children.
I myself haven’t read much of Rushdie and Midnight’s Children was also a long time ago. I was curious about what he had to say about his attack and the book surely didn’t disappoint. In fact now I am looking forward to reading The Satanic Verses and other books.
Thank you for the list. And a very happy new year to you 🤩
Happy new year to you too ❤️
Happy 2025 to you and your newsletter Ila! May this be the year where we get to read much more of your writing :)
Thanks Pritam! I really hope so too. Happy New Year! Hope it has many more adventures in store for you ❤️
Thanks for sharing notes on your list. Helpful
Glad to hear!

Thank you, Ila. There is this gentleness with which you hold your books and your reading life. It inspires me.
Thanks Raju ❤️
I’m now eager to walk down to my bookstore, Ila. Love this curation. So thank you- on both counts.
That’s so heartwarming to hear, Deepika! :)
