Adding holi to book edges A Wonderland of words by @ShashiTharoor #books #foreedge #bookrecs #BookLovers #Holi2025 #englishlearning #reading #BookTwitter #artist

I particularly enjoyed the narrative. It felt almost like a continuation of the session and listening to him talk live. (Almost as I wasn't pressed against a wall and craning my neck to catch a glimpse of him.) A Wonderland of words - Fore-edge painting #books #artist

The first time I saw India's Mr Difficult Words, I was asked to 'kindly adjust' and squeeze against the door of @HinduLitforLife. It was 45 minutes of me being convinced to go grab a copy of his book - and a dictionary. Contd below. 🎁 Wishing @ShashiTharoor a happy birthday!

He patiently explained his story and important plot points to help me come up with ideas for the edge. We settled on a design featuring two of the important sigils from the story and I had a great time painting and gilding a vanishing Fore-edge for him.

Fast forward to early November, I received a message from Mathi, the writer from above, asking for me to paint a copy of a book he wrote. I was thrilled. ✒️ Mathi (@_.mathiraj._ ) is a writer based in Chennai and author of Legends Never Die: Game of Gods (among many others).

The last book of 2024 holds a special place with me. A long time back I had watched an interview of an author. Having resonated with the thoughts he had shared, I had dropped a comment under the video. #books #booktwt #art #painting #Tamil https://t.co/0oVW3N7vFZ
