Much has been said about Pather panchali and Apajito, but I like this first part much better because of the more nostalgic touch (and yes, the pain of the sudden deaths that come). The poverty and humiliation is written so subtly that it pains your heart. It is one of those stories where the author doesn't mention what is happening as a fact, but shows you through examples, and that what I feel makes the story much immersive and touching. ]]> ReadStatus9124938985 Thu, 27 Feb 2025 11:17:19 -0800 <![CDATA[Ayushi wants to read 'The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle']]> /review/show/7360231909 The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton Ayushi wants to read The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton

What can one write about this timeless book, core to the bengali literature, and subsequently the cinemas. That it took me so many years on finding this and reading this is a shame. The book had a chokehold on me that I can't even explain. It's a classic and for a reason. 10/10 would recommend every one who can read bangla to read this. Onto Pather panchali now. ]]> Review7232800896 Sun, 26 Jan 2025 00:45:38 -0800 <![CDATA[Ayushi added 'Letters from the Ginza Shihodo Stationery Shop']]> /review/show/7232800896 Letters from the Ginza Shihodo Stationery Shop by Kenji Ueda Ayushi gave 4 stars to Letters from the Ginza Shihodo Stationery Shop (Paperback) by Kenji Ueda
3.75/4

I love slice of life Japanese literature, it’s my most favourite genre in the world. A slow, calming, warm read of 5 short stories happening around the stationery shop. The pace did fall in some parts but in the end, I fell in love again with stationeries. ]]> UserStatus988328719 Sun, 19 Jan 2025 21:16:29 -0800 <![CDATA[ Ayushi is on page 45 of 320 of Letters from the Ginza Sh ]]> Letters from the Ginza Shihodo Stationery Shop by Kenji Ueda Ayushi is on page 45 of 320 of <a href="/book/show/215369044-letters-from-the-ginza-shihodo-stationery-shop">Letters from the Ginza Shihodo Stationery Shop</a>. ]]>
