Meet Allan Karlsson...

View this post on Instagram

"You might think he could have made up his mind earlier, and been man enough to tell the others of his decision. But Allan Karlsson had never been given to pondering things too long. So the idea had barely taken hold in the old man's head before he opened the window of his room on the ground floor of the Old People's Home in the town of Malmkoping, and stepped out - into the flowerbed. This manoeuvre required a bit of effort, since Allan was one hundred years old. On this very day in fact. There was less than an hour to go before his birthday party would begin in the lounge of the Old People’s Home. The mayor would be there. And the local paper. And all the other old people. And the entire staff, led by the bad-tempered Director Alice. It was only the Birthday Boy himself who didn’t intend to show up..." . - Jonas Jonasson The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared (2009) (Translated from the Swedish by Roy Bradbury) Harper Collins . “Twentieth-century history retold through an ingenious plot in a comic caper that never ceases to surprise and delight. The funniest, most joyous book I have read in years.” . - Shashi Tharoor

Meet Arthur Less, my companion for Jaipur Literature Festival '19...

View this post on Instagram

"From where I sit, the story of Arthur Less is not so bad. Look at him: seated primly on the hotel lobby's plush round sofa, blue suit and white shirt, legs knee-crossed so that one polished loafer hangs free of its heel. The pose of a young man. His slim shadow is, in fact, still that of his younger self, but at nearly fifty he is like those bronze statues in public parks that, despite one lucky knee rubbed raw by schoolchildren, discolor beautifully until they match the trees. So has Arthur Less, once pink and gold with youth, faded like the sofa he sits on, tapping one finger on his knee and staring at the grandfather clock..." . - Andrew Sean Greer Less (2017) Lee Boudreaux Books . A hilarious Pulitzer Prize-winning novel about a struggling novelist who travels the world on a literary tour to avoid an awkward wedding, as his fiftieth birthday looms.
