“Books do not get jealous if you read other books”- Anonymous
Reading book is both a custom and an aesthetic. It links us to human fate and predicament, of what happened in the Classical Antiquity to as much as those of the modern era, and whatever came between the two. It is in reading, that one becomes one with the people presented. The representatives of the ‘Book Reading Session’ in support of The Bhawanipur Education Society College called for one: on the famous writer of the modern era, Virginia Woolf.
A proponent writer of modernism who steered the course of modernist themes of writing is widely hailed for psychoanalytic readings of her popular works. The one-hour session, scheduled from 10.30 am, took place at the BESC library, Knowledge Resource Centre. Dr. Vasundhara Mishra and Ms. Samiksha Khanduri were the faculties present. Their presence was markedly inspirational. Prof Dilip Shah, The Dean of Student Affairs, graced the occasion by coming over to the readers and acknowledging the influence of these sessions. He shared his insight, that “books are supposed to be read to understand characters” and Woolf “is remembered and revered till date.”
Dr. Vasundhara started off by delivering an impelling note on the life and losses of Woolf. She proposed facts and feelings, which were to be equated with the existence of Virginia exclaiming that it is intriguing to unravel her inner voice, silence, experiences and dedication. “There is little space in the language, understand its gesture and read it cause it’s not that tough. It is an empathy towards original plays.” she expounded.
