I stopped drinking milk by sudha murthy pdf free download
This book is a collection of real-life stories, a book about extraordinary tales about ordinary people’s lives that will delight readers of all ages. Sudha Murty is a popular writer. Her popularity stems mainly from her simplicity of style, candidness and transparency. The other day, to be more precise on Wednesday the 17th October, I heard her at Crosswords, at the Kemps Corner in Mumbai. She exudes simplicity. ‘ I am an old fashioned woman’ and she added ‘ I love travelling by train because you meet several people’. The book under review is a recollection of her experiences. She has met several people whom we would normally consider inconsequential but Sudha Murty has lessons to learn from them all reminding us of the oft quot;d line from Shakespeare ‘sermons in stone and running brooks’. She is intellectually honest. There is no touch of hypocrisy or cant about her and she can be a nice model for all aspiring young writers. She was asked whether she took permission of the characters whom she writes about. She answered that she has for the people don’t want their mistakes to be repeated by others. Of all virtues she commended the virtue of compassion. Sudha Murty has this virtue in abundance, as her stories will exemplify. Sudha Murty is a prolific writer in English and Kannada. Published by the Penguin Books India this year, the last story in this slender volume is titled ‘ Life’s Secret Lessons’. This is quite significant. The first lesson that she learnt was that children speak the truth while adults have a befogged mind. The second lesson she learnt was during her travels to distant corners of India to witness the ravages caused by natural catastrophes or disasters. She realized the limitation of human power and though men have money power it can never be a substitute for life. Sudha Murty does not hesitate to learn from her own son, Rohan, who taught her never to.
