Book Review: My Friend Sancho



               
What is it with these popular bloggers that one fine morning they get up and decide they are going to be writers? Don't publishers learn from one such debacle? These are the questions that keep coming back to your mind as you glance through Amit Varma's (India Uncut fame!) "My Friend Sancho".

The good thing about Sancho is that you don't have to read the entire book to know what is happening. All you need to glance through is the last 10 pages of this 217 page punishment to understand what it is all about. The narrative moves around in circles and not even once manages to find its centre. This could have well been another post on Mr. Varma's celebrated blog. Spare the book reading public please...
