I don't know why, but I could never find myself comfortable reading Shakespeare.

May be I can blame our so called intellectuals who made us read our Kalidas "An Indian Shakespeare" in my high school, my heart cried wishing for Shakespeare to be called "An English Kalidas" some day. Since then I know I am biased against this English poet.

Nothing personal

He wrote some outstanding Plays and poems. He invented so many phrases that we use them very frequently in our daily Elglish usage. He even invenetd words like 'assassination' and 'plumber'.

It is simple and interesting, Abhinav

'Sans Everything' - may be he was talking by his own experience


'Handknitted Sweaters' - Aryan's buas and dadies (and there are many of them) are working overtime with much zeal and enthusiasm.
