My Autobiography

 The autobiography has had its origin in the urge to tell the world about yourself. Mine has had a few more readers than my estimate of four (the size of my family)- I distributed it to some too :)

It has had two editions so far, and it stops at IMT Nagpur, which is to say, around 2013. Here are the covers of the two editions, published by pothi.com, an online self-publishing and POD (print -on-demand) company. The first came out in 2009-10.

Covers and Cover-ups

Covers are used to hide what's beneath. So, it's a kind of cover-up, I guess.

What can be covered?

Crimes, as we learn from the great mystery writers, and not so great mystery serials (C.I.D.).

Books, and note-books, as we learnt in school.

Bodies, to prevent others from seeing how ugly we really look (ha, ha)

Homes, so that we have a roof over our head- literally!

Stadiums, so the screams of the Football/Cricket fans don't cause noise pollution.

Water-filled buckets, so the mosquitoes don't breed like pigeons (they seem to be everywhere, like the sheep in New Zealand).

Cups of tea and coffee, so they don't get cold while waiting for the drinker to arrive.
