As i said last time, a good book is many things at different times.
It helps one to develop as a thinking, feeling being.
It can have a great impact on a person or even the society in general.
We all know how Gandhiji was inspired by the stories of Hariscandra and SravanaKumara.
Abe Lincoln, on meeting Harriet Beecher Stove, said (referencing UNCLE TOM'S CABIN)
"So you're the little woman that started this great war?"
So, I would like each of us to read atleast a few great works. Let them be in Telugu, English, Hindi or any other language.
All the books are not readily available and need not be bought either. All of us have good libraries and we can catch up on out reading when we visit each other.
First I shall start with the list in Telugu.
(to be continued)
