About Me
- Suvro Chatterjee
- Durgapur, West Bengal, India
- I am 61, and for 22 years now a confirmed home-bird. I read, write, teach, counsel, listen to music, exercise, watch movies, have fun with kids including my own, have tried to be a good husband, think all the time, and generally endeavour to live the good life as I have understood it. It's tough, and it's been a long trudge.

Sir,
I read quite a few of them, and the one i liked the most was -Everybody Tells Me Everything. It is so very true that there has never been an era when things have gone so right with the wrong people!
And The Ostrich is funny too!
