It’s a complicated one to even begin. The first day I stepped foot in this office, I was made to sit in the board room where amateur artworks hung on the walls. Now normally we see art prints in workspaces, whenever there’s such work it’s either an employee or a boss’s kids, or long-term patients... Continue Reading →
Fight Club- The Book
MAJOR SPOILER ALERT, WE WILL TALK ABOUT THE WHOLE STORY HERE. I just fell in love with this movie, partially because when I watched it, I was mad at societal norms (I still sort of am) and partially because I was an insomniac at that time (which I am not anymore). You can read the... Continue Reading →
Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut
Slaughterhouse five had been on my must read list for a few years, because it earned its well-deserved place in plenty of To-Read lists. I read it last month and have been researching on and off before writing about this review/opinion, but then I realized anything that will be derived from what’s available already kills...

The Fall by Albert Camus
Reading an absurdist can be challenging. When I started reading The Fall by Albert Camus, my thoughts were “this is the shortest book I have” "this is my 2nd book by Albert Camus, I wont regret it maybe..” And then I nose-dived straight into it. The book starts with a self-proclaimed "judge-penitent", Jean-Baptiste Clamence, narrating... Continue Reading →
Review by Dave Williams (Review#20)
Every review makes me emotional and I tear up a little. But this one made me cry. I have been numb for last week or so for too many reasons and I thought maybe it’s good. Maybe for a change I’m getting few anxiety-free days. But my mind was silently struggling in a dark corner... Continue Reading →
World Art Dubai. Part-1
Sam (my best friend) and I have always been artistic souls. She actually won artist of the year in school. So, World Art Dubai aptly called "region's largest affordable retail art fair " was one event we couldn't miss. We actually blind-walked into the whole thing as we wanted the experience to blow our minds.... Continue Reading →
Review by Suzette Benjamin (Review # 18!!)
Who are you people? What planet is this? Where am I?? This review has been gracing amazon page of my book, Swinging Sanity for a week now and I saw it yesterday only. ... And then I was asking all those question mentioned above. This review itself is poetry that made me swell with pride... Continue Reading →
The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath
If you are not a fan of Sylvia Plath I suggest you skip this one. In few words this book is only novel, a semi-biography written by Sylvia Plath and basically a narration of her downward spiral, covering her suicide attempts and hospitalization. If you know anything about her life and her writing, it’s going... Continue Reading →
Girl, interrupted – Movie
Girl interrupted has been on the must-watch list for a very long time and last night I crossed this one finally. Since it was released in December 1999 and its 2019, and the whole image of mental health has shifted drastically since then, I watched it with a clean slate as a viewer rather than... Continue Reading →
The Devil Wears Prada – Movie
The Devil Wears Prada Hmm So I bought this book some 5 - 6 years back. I clearly remember as I got it from an airport. Loved the red on the cover. I don't remember how many words I have read from this book as I bought an overwhelming number of books after that. Well.... Continue Reading →
