Book Review-Wise and Otherwise
Book Review: G.Sathwika from Team Samarpan
Book Title: Wise and Otherwise
Author: Sudha Murthy
The first book that I read, WISE AND OTHERWISE by SUDHA MURTHY tells the fifty novelties which showcase the different shades of human behaviour. It makes the people more connected to the book. Sudha Murthy, being the chairperson of Infosys has come across many types of people at her office as well while traveling during the course of her work.Those different experiences with all the people made the author to write this book.
This novel is a wake up call for moral senses. She has put down each and every story remarkably. From different life experiences of the author, she speaks about stories grounded on feelings, relationships, honesty, courtship, generation gap,respect for teachers and elders, social evils like dowry, old age home, love towards nature, courage, importance of the National days, work of philanthropists and perspective of all many different people from different phases of life. Most of the stories in this book make us reflect on our own life and experiences.
In every story, the author portrays her positive attitude which proves that it is the best weapon for a human being. She brings joy and sometimes tears, yet overwhelming us each time about the grace and disgrace of the society.
The stories in this book could be anyone’s but reading them made me realise a lot, and feel humble.
This book teaches us that there is still innocence, love and sympathy left in us.
The author proved herself as a SUPER WOMAN in this book.
Finally by reading this book, I have realised that why can’t I write a book like the author.
