I picked this up on a recommendation and I'm so glad I did. Sudha Murty has produced something special here — enjoyable to read while also being genuinely substantive. The kind of book you want to press into people's hands. Five stars without any hesitation at all.
Few books manage to be both intellectually stimulating and genuinely enjoyable to read. How I Taught My Grandmother to Read and Other Stories is one of them. Sudha Murty's command of the subject is evident throughout and the presentation is superb. Highly, highly recommended.
This is exactly what a good book should do — entertain you, challenge you, and leave you feeling like the time was genuinely well spent. Sudha Murty delivers on all three counts. I've already recommended it to everyone in my office. A wonderful purchase.
Outstanding in every respect. How I Taught My Grandmother to Read and Other Stories shows Sudha Murty at their very best — clear thinking, elegant writing, ideas that linger. I don't give five stars lightly but this absolutely earned them.
Genuinely one of the best books I've read this year. Sudha Murty writes with clarity and intelligence and the ideas in How I Taught My Grandmother to Read and Other Stories are both original and immediately relevant. I came away from it thinking differently about something I thought I understood. That doesn't happen often. Highly recommended.
