The lit festival and who all are irresistible

The lit festival and who all are irresistible

Some would say that it is the balanced coverage of the literature festival that has balanced the organisers to balance their outlook and time and again look at their passbook. None of the organisers would like to go beyond the brief spelled by the administration and if they do so, the penalty would be no cheap. So before any transgression(seen by the administration)is attempted by any writer who hasn't written and yet attempts to write or who has neither written nor attempts to do the same but has enough probability to have fame courtesy ghost writers, the organisers would step in to debar them from a session of reading and rehearsing. Because if for undiluted hours they allow the book readers to read and rehearse it could lead to a typified law and order problem leading to emergence of bawdy emoluments. Nothing that could turn pricey and sap their passbook savvy could be allowed by anyone with any bent of mind. Mind which we all are proud to possess but are afraid to deploy.

With the scuffle between the organisers and writers not looming large, it was the turn of intellectuals to charge. In the literature festival the collection is of individuals who have reached prime as far as intellectual capacity is concerned; those who are established intellectuals and yet have not been notified by their writing-and-not-sulking world; those who attempt to be intellectuals and are yet to discover the way to this tag that is perpetual; and those who don't aspire and don't dream of the same and yet have been carrying this tag for long and with no gain. The collection spelled out in clinical details, the literature fest of reading and on occasions coughing, has tried over the years to discover, dissect and digress. Discovery is oneself and dissection is of the writings that others have attempted to do with clarity shoot.
