I thought Lajja was a very lousy read. All she does is add on a super shock value by just listing atrocities committed on women. She hopes to add credibility to them by specifying time and place. Its more like reading a book chronicling crimes against women in Bangladesh.

The Friedrich Nietzsche's Birth of Tragedy? Where did you get it? I've been searching for that book.

Finished Lajja couple of days back. Now reading Fyodor Dostoevsky's The Idiot. Damn Russian names.
