First Person by Rituparno Ghosh

This is a collection of columns Ghosh wrote. He was a critically acclaimed director (and actor) of mostly Bengali films known for his aesthetics and sensitivity. On top of that, he was also an LGBTQ activist. I know a few people who used to be homophobes but changed their opinion after watching his works.

Yes. They allow us to take a peek at Moore’s mind. I remember how sound his idea about Anarchy was in V for Vendetta. He gives so much thought to everything he writes.

I think I like Sodom and Gomorrah the least. Proust’s view on homosexuality seems partial.

Manufacturing Consent is worth reading for its relevance. Two serious wars are going on and the media is still using the same formulas.

The Riddler is fun to read.
