In Cold Blood review

In Cold Blood review

This book just starts and never holds back. The quality of Capote’s writing is so impeccable, his attention to details in the characters. Capote could write about a sunny day and make it interesting. This book is a world, real — but not the happiest, but one I loved to go back. This book just […]

Cosmos review

Cosmos review

What sets Sagan (and Cosmos) apart from other science books is the sheer enthusiasm and context he provides. While the book is thick, and some chapters complicated, the storytelling power and ‘the bigger picture’ make this thing a pageturner.

A sense of time

A sense of time

In the first two weeks of this year, I’ve often looked back on my life in a very practical, non-philosophical way. I revisited my former schools in Google Streetview, I went through designs made years ago, I played a video game which the teenage-me also played, and I read emails sent a decade ago. Perhaps what triggered […]

St. Kilda Beach

St. Kilda Beach

In 2009, I was doing a six-month internship in Sydney, Australia, at Marketing Mechanics. Since Melbourne was really close, I bought tickets to the Australian Grand Prix. I arrived in a dirty and cheap hostel, and had a roommate from France, who was a huge Lewis Hamilton fan. I was reading a book from 2001 by […]

Shadow Puppets review

Shadow Puppets review

Shadow Puppets is good for Ender’s Game series addicts, albeit it’s quite fast-foody; fast, cheap, okay but that great. Card’s personal views about marriage are very present in this book (outside his books, he’s openly homophobic), but this shouldn’t bother you. If you’d only want to read books that agree with your personal view, your […]

Man at the bay

Man at the bay

The man next to me took his phone from his shirt pocket and aimed it at the sun, which was setting into Mumbai’s bay. It was of no use; the sun, red and bright in front of our faces, was barely noticeable on his phone’s screen, reduced to a mere pixel. He threw his hands in […]

Driver spotlight: Peter Collins

Driver spotlight: Peter Collins

Ahead of the 1958 season, the team of Ferrari fielded three young and talented drivers, causing the Italian press to call them ‘La Squadra Primavera’ – The Spring Team. They were Luigi Musso from Italy, and Mike Hawtorn and Peter Collins from the United Kingdom. Yet, in less than 12 months, all three would have […]
