Mridula Koshy on knowing writers:
Linked by kuffir. Join Blogbharti facebook group.I think knowing the writer can shrink the work. The best kind of knowledge, best in the sense of it aiding a good reading of a work, is one in which the reader has access to the socio-political-economic picture of the times the writer lived in. Ideally from the distance of elapsed time. Maybe after they’re dead.
