Inferno : Review

'' The darkest places of hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in moral crisis''.


Set mainly in the picturesque town of Florence in Italy, with the whole book dancing around the country of Dante Alighieri's origin, Dan Brown's 'Inferno' promises to change your perspective about many things. When Langdon (the protagonist) wakes up in a hospital, with a gunshot wound to his head and no recollection of the past two days, Langdon, along with the young and resourceful Doctor Sienna Brooks, has to find out what happened and also locate the virus before it kills half of the population if released.

  It's a factual fiction which takes the reader through an amazing journey of words that build the scene in your mind. It's a perfect blend of mythology and science. The way it creates suspense and leaves the reader on a cliffhanger at the end of every chapter, is just mind-blowing. The virus was said to be created by Bertrand Zobrist, a trans-humanist who believed the world is in danger of collapse due to overpopulation. The way Sienna and Langdon tackle their way through mythological clues and the use the map of hell to find the virus and save the people is very engaging and doesn't let you keep the book down.

The very beauty of curd rice is that it's just a simple blend of curd along with rice as the name suggests. It's taste just doubles up with the addition of pickles or bananas. (Yes, people do add that). The comforting taste of curd rice is so nostalgic that I can eat it anytime. This dish is filling, satisfying and most importantly, available at all times. During my childhood, visiting Grandma's place would have a sole purpose; eating some amazing South Indian food.  Curd rice has always bee...

The Bell-Bottom Trend Personally, I love bell-bottoms and especially bell-bottom jeans. Bell-bottoms (or flares) are a style of trousers that become wider from the knees downward, forming a bell-like shape of the trouser leg. These trendy and versatile pants are a great addition your wardrobe. Nothing makes a woman look tall and skinny as a pair of great bell bottoms.  Bell- bottom jeans can be styled with tank tops and can be accessorized with loop earrings. High heels can be worn to give a classy look. One can also use a pair of slides as footwear. Bell-bottoms are comfortable, easy to wear and carry yourself when you're wearing it. If you want to carry a purse, you can always carry slings with gold coloured chains so as to glam up your look even more. Bell-bottoms are suitable for parties, clubs, meetings and fashion shows. They were a symbol of the 70's fashion trends but then disappeared and later reappeared in the 90's as a part of the baggy cloth...
