Indian Readers discussion

Dear friends,
its time again to suggest books for polls. Please suggest your favorite Indian authored book. The first 4 suggestions will be put up for vote.
DEAR FRIENDS
PLEASE SUGGEST AUTOBIOGRAPHY/BIOGRAPHY YOU ARE INTERESTED IN FOR THE MARCH 2012 BOOK READS. AND DO IGNORE THE ABOVE PARAGRAPH. I AM NOT DELETING IT TO AVOID FURTHER CONFUSION. (Initially I had named this thread as Indian readers which caused confusion as I already had put up a thread to that effect)

For march twice Indian authors? Or was it a typo?

Sure, it's a typo, please hold on till she comes back and corrects it, not sure what genre she planned for this month..

Ok ;)

Waiting Col.

Autobiography, the non-fiction readers must be dancing with joy :D

yes, lets give them some joy :D

is the book The Discovery of India in compliance with the group read for Autobiography/Biography . i know that it is not a autobiography but in a way its the biography of India through the eyes of Nehru.(the truth is i bought this book couple of days ago and waiting to read it :)

Into the Wild - Jon Krakauer

I have read The Discovery of India. It doesn't qualify :)

I have been waiting to lay my hands on this book.



Heard that is not a narcissistic account unlike other biographies.

Sorry, Vinoth. We will put up the genre non-fiction maybe 2 or 3 months later, and then you may nominate this book. We need biographies of people, not places.

so 2 nominations, 2 more to go.

I Dare - Kiran Bedi

Songs of Blood and Sword: A Daughter's Memoir by Fatima Bhutto

Next we should go for Indian writers and their auto/bio graphies.
