Here's the Random House India editors' compilation of what authors have been reading this year. The list includes Vikas Swarup, Basharat Peer, Namita Devidayal, Jhumpa Lahiri, Daniyal Mueenuddin, Alice Albinia, Geoff Dyer, Mohammed Hanif, etc. Rather impressive, I should say. Link through Chiki Sarkar by way of Facebook.
recently i visited the indira gandhi memorial (delhi) and the most fascinating room was her library. i was touched to see some of her favourite authors were mine too. after all these years, suddenly she was human. felt the same as i went through the list of what famous authors have been reading.
