எக்ஸிஸ்டென்ஷியலிஸமும் ஃபேன்ஸி பனியனும் (Existentialisamum fancy paniyanum) - Charu Nivedita


"சுஜாதா இவருடைய எக்ஸிஸ்டென்ஷியலிஸமும் ஃபேன்ஸி பனியனும் பற்றி எழுதும் போது அதை மலம் என்றார் ." -  Somewhere I read the above statement. I think I will not go 'that far' and say something like that but its close to it.  I really  don't understand why Charu wrote this book. On the other hand I may not have understood the plot/ concept properly(??). I don't know. 

Nothing new in this novel, everyone is fighting with everyone. For the first time in my life I can clearly say "I wasted my reading time" . I never felt that I was wasting time in 'reading' but I did for this book. I'm yet to read Charu's 'Zero Degree' I hope it will be a better read.

This is not  good writing by author of so much calibre(may be due to lack of experience?? because he wrote this book when he was 25)  and the concept of existentialism is not clear to me in regards to Charu's writing. I have read books by Burroughs which I can understand and the writing was far more superior. I did not find any review about this book in tamil websites or blogs. I thought reading some review may give some idea of what I missed or failed to understand.

Read at your own risk!
