Event Information
This month we will be discussing the book “Musings of a Mind: Short Stories and Poems”, written by Centurion Mrs. Meenakshi Sitaraman, who will be attending this Book Club Meet at Raah. Born in Calcutta, she was schooled at Convent of Jesus and Mary, New Delhi during the British Raj. She took a Bachelor of Arts at Indraprastha College in Delhi. That gave her a command of the English language. She is also fluent in Hindi and Tamil. After her early widowhood at the age of forty, she dedicated her life to the orphans and destitute widows at Tiruchi Seva Sangam, a charity organization at Tiruchirapalli, That experience gave her a greater insight into life, inequality and suffering. These stories and poems stem from her feeling for the downtrodden, her close observation of people and behaviours, and a fertile imagination. The stories are often based on real life events.
