Trustworthy rhetoric

Books that I’m itching to visually assault:

Freedom Song – Amit Chaudhari
Midnight’s Children – Salman Rushdie (my most loyal concubine)
A Mystic Masseur – VS Naipaul
Half a Life – VS Naipaul
Vernon God Little – DBC Pierre
Life of Pi – Yann Martel
Middlesex - Jeffrey Eugenides
The Known World – Edward P Jones
The Book of Secrets – MG Vassanji
Polished Hoe – Austin Clarke

I’ve vowed to put my meager earnings towards purchasing a book a cheque. After all, vernacular seems to be the only entity I can truly trust. Especially these days. When people never fail to disappoint, I’m constantly wishing that I could just turn the page and move on. Inhale. Exhale. Walk out.

More to follow.
