Congratulations. yours is a really nice blog. :) <br />Getting to what I need now........ I am doing my research as a part of my academics. I am working on the "Just William" and "More William" by Richmal Crompton. Its basically a comparative study of Children's Literature from England and India. I am looking for already existing research on Crompton. Please share it with me if you have any info about this. Thanks :)<br /><br />seeemarajaram@gmail.comseemahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00545743417523715302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14282752.post-1141402957777057662006-03-03T08:22:00.000-08:002006-03-03T08:22:00.000-08:00Ravages: Go do a PGW post.

Just write that book! <BR/><BR/>Thanks. Will try to get hold of these J** journals. But yeah, I have a feeling they will be like reading Dostoevsky in Russian!Veenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06064708986711901612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14282752.post-1141244902633834312006-03-01T12:28:00.000-08:002006-03-01T12:28:00.000-08:00JAP: Your list is so awesome.

Do update.<BR/><BR/>Ravages: Go do a PGW post. That would be cool.<BR/><BR/>Kapa Manduka: Yeah, remember this poem from way back. Kolatkar rocks!<BR/><BR/>Andy: Though I wasn't really looking forward to reading Blink,I actually ended up liking it. Not for the idea as such which was pretty basic, but for all the studies that the book talked about. I thouught they were all pretty interesting. Haven't read 'The Tipping Point' so can't talk about that.<BR/><BR/>Neela: Since you seem to be a source of never ending info on consumer behaviour, would appreciate some links to similar studies.

But the subtlest of Plum's work is The Old Reliable and Adventures of Sally. Uncle Fred in Springtime and Sam the Sudden too are awesome. Heart of a Goof and Clicking of Cuthbert too. Oh darn. Now you (and JAP) got me started on PGW.

Should one include the Five Find-Outers? Asterix? (Falstaff has) And the Three Investigators from Alfred Hitchcock?<BR/><BR/>This particular meme is very annoying. One has to keep coming back with 'how the hell could I forget X?!?' additions. You are squeaky clean, you put these thoughts in your own comments section. I have no qualms about sneakily adding to the post! Which is what I'm off to do now ...<BR/><BR/>J.A.P.J.

Kafka on the Shore is glorious, of course, as are the Dahl short stories. On Marquez, I've personally always been more partial to Autumn of the Patriarch than to One Hundred Years of Solitude. And Conrad, of course, another writer I missed out on my list. damn.Falstaffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09791162324919462038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14282752.post-1140842565767765422006-02-24T20:42:00.000-08:002006-02-24T20:42:00.000-08:00Oh no, I missed the Yossarian book.
