I am giving up after reading 126 pages of the book. The entire book seems to be mouthing banal platitudes written in a round about manner i.e. the same thing again and again and again. Even the quality of Tharoors' English, which has become somewhat of a joke in popular media in recent times, fails to sparkle.
I wonder whether I have it in me to pick another Tharoor, even if it is rated highly, by biased, overawed journos.
