Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body. – Joseph Addison
Meet Kirty A. Harit, who firmly believes that it was her daily reading habit back in the boarding school days that has shaped her personality.
“People appreciate me for my strong command over the language.”
We indulged in a quick talk with the Writer and new Publisher at her home to extract all about her love for book.
Same Soul Many Bodies by Dr. Brian Weiss. Paul Coelho. Currently my new crush is Dr. Brian Weiss. Aah, will I get one? But yes, Dan Brown anytime. I am. *chuckles* I would rather say books that I can relate to are from author Sudha Murthy’s desk. It was in the book ‘Namesake’ narrating dialogues between the husband and wife. It was the turning point where the wife wanted to leave the home in a quest to find herself amidst all her responsibilities. Husband’s words are encouraging and provocative telling her how a woman can re-discover herself. And, the wife stayed. Bhagavad Gita as It Is. Mostly online unless I step into city libraries once in a while. Flipkart and amazon.in have it all. By its name and not the covers. The name has to justify the topic inside. My book! Next year it will be on shelves. I keep one hour before bedtime for my book. And I do this daily without fail. It’s one’s passion, I guess. She has already started! I read her the graphical book of Krishna. Her smile makes me sure that she loves it. To keep something alive in you, keep reading.
