Noon by Aatish Taseer

Currently readind Aatish Taseer’s Noon. While in college, i had a chance to read Stranger to history by the same author. He is the son of Indian journalist Tavleen Singh and assassinated Pakistan Governor Salman Taseer. Partition, Old Delhi, Hindu-Muslim and other such sentiments keep unfolding through out the book.
It set me thinking at a place. I have read good number of books. Have i read many of them to be able to tell that i have read them? Similar line of thought for my education.

p.s. Read an interview of this writer here.

Finished reading it. Didn’t like it at all. For the better part of the book, he talks about his life in Delhi. Then, we are taken to PbQ where he talks about troubles that are there in his brother’s life. It might as well be called his autobiography.
