Foreign author at Brooklyn Book Festival who could hardly read his own book. I must love a writer who cannot even read his own writing.

Indian author Manil Suri doing a Bollywood dance at the Brooklyn Book Festival. This was the high point of the show, and it made a cracked smile come to my cynical lips.

Manil Suri, the author of The Age of Shiva and The Death of Vishnu performing a Bollywood number to perfection at the Brooklyn Book Festival. This was seriously good stuff. Hannah Kates berated me earlier in the day for saying that I judge books by the author photos, but after watching Manil Suri do his dance masquerading as an Indian woman I think we are both going to read his books.

Indian Call Center

Indian Call Center

This is a funny picture of an Indian call center employee. It is meant to be a joke. I have been to the call centers of Bangalore, unwittingly even studied and wrote about them, and I know that they do not look like this below photo. The call centers of India are actually very much not like this photo. I just think it is funny.
