| Introduction | I’m into education. Was born and raised in Delhi, which is India in miniature. It’s my confused existence in this multicultural, multiracial and multilingual place that has made me a humanist, I think. My educational background has trained me to think in English (the Indianized version). I love Hindi but like most Delhiites, my Hindi is a confused mixture of many Indian languages. So, can’t write in Hindi. However my knowledge of Hindi and my Indian sensibilities never cease to meddle with my English. For a creature like me who prefers opening her mouth only to teach (for which I’m paid), writing is important.And I have chosen English as the medium because it is the only language through which I can express myself. Hope you like my work! |
