The Sterling Bull And Other Tales





The Sterling Bull & Other Tales


The world is an amusement park with its roller coaster rides, giant wheels, house of horrors, thrills and frills. And everyone is a patron who has his or her share of the pie. One may be up one day, down the next; one may slip and fall and rise up. But all said and done, the experiences are uplifting and there are no places for grudges.

With these humour-veined short stories, the writer subtly hints the reader to take all that life offers with a smile while narrating a series of fictional occurrences that may have been unexpected and unpleasant at the time for some. but in the aftermath, the same events are revealed to be the spice that enriches ones existence. The joys of living are available to one and all and one doesn't have to be special to find life rewarding. 

The Sterling Bull is one such story which is set in the Sterling Road in Chennai. The area where Loyola College is situated. Other famous landmarks which Loyolites would be aware about are Kuttys & Nambys
