The Old Man And His God
The Old Man And His God | Sudha Murty
3 posts | 4 read
As she goes about her work with the villagers, slum dwellers and the common men and women of India, Sudha Murty—writer, social worker and teacher—listens to them and records what they have to say. Their accounts of the struggles and hardships which they have at times overcome, and at other times been overwhelmed by, are put together in this book. There are stories about people’s generosity—and selfishness—in times of natural disasters like the tsunami; women struggling to speak out in a world that refuses to listen to them; and tales of young professionals trying to find their feet as they climb up the corporate ladder. Told simply and directly from the heart, The Old Man and His God is a collection of snapshots of the varied facets of human nature and a mirror to the souls of the people of India.

One of my favourite authors and she never fails to wins the heart.This book is an anthology of 25 short stories from Her travel or life experiences.Being a teacher and also philanthropist along with chairperson of Infosys Foundation, she comes across all different kinds of people with different stories and emotions.
With each story, there is a pearl of knowledge and wisdom there which motivates us to be good person

Sudha Murthy's stories are simple yet profound. Most of the stories are based on her experience in South India as a socisl worker and head of the Infosys Foundation. They have a touch of real life and bring out the human character in all its varied shades. I will certainly pick up more of her books
