The books I happened to read - were to a large extent a result of the books that were at my home (thanks to my father and aunt), and my use of the American libraries in Calcutta (including the now closed American University Centre).<BR/><BR/>I would like to read your reflections about "the intellectual growth of our generation, or about growing up in the company of books in general"!<BR/><BR/>Best<BR/><BR/>ramaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30321121.post-15288767259625877892007-02-24T05:02:00.000+05:302007-02-24T05:02:00.000+05:30Great list, Rama.

I could not but help reflecting that while my own reading is very much the same in the beginning (out of the first 25, about 16 are common), it diverges significantly in the middle, and then there is common ground again towards the end.
