Yessirs! Our little blog begins at the beginning. The new academic year is now in full swing and the Department (of English) is all set for another activity-filled year. This year the Department has launched its very own English Club called the The Wordsmith’s Guild. (You can check out the links!)
The Guild is not restricted to the Arts students alone. In fact, it’s where all the faculties converge. There is simply a HOST of activities lined up for the ‘Wordsmiths’ and it all began with the launch of the first two Literary posters on August 3.
Students from SYBA and TYBA did a hand made poster each. The sophomores commemorated Kiran Desai’s Booker Prize winner ‘The Inheritance of Loss’. One of them read the book and wrote her own review of the book. Similarly, the TY’s made a poster on Chinua Achebe who won the Man Booker International Prize this year for his contributions to literature. The students read his monumental ‘Things fall apart’ and wrote a review for the same. Here’s to the Wordsmiths-Cheers!
