Birthday
bumps
For our love for literature and literary personalities we’ll
be celebrating birthdays of eminent literary personalities or the ones we are a
fan of. The month of September feels lucky enough to have three most loved and
adored authors of all time. Staring with
Roald Dahl
(September 13, 1916- November 23,1990)
Few children’s authors have been as influential and
prolific as Roald Dahl. Some of his works include Charlie and the Chocolate
Factory, Matilida, The BFG, and James and the Giant Peach. A very happy
birthday to our favourite story writer.
O. Henry
(September 11, 1862 – June 5,
1910)
Also known as William Sydney Porter,a man whose short
stories are known for their surprise endings like in his famous short story, The Last Leaf which has never failed to touch a life. The writing
style we find in his works is what we mostly adore. He also has works like Cabbages
and Kings (1904), Roads of Destiny (1909) and Whirligigs (1910) to his
name. We wish you a very happy birthday O. Henry.
Agatha Christie
(September 15, 1890- January 12, 1976)
This beautiful English crime
novelist,
short story writer and playwright
is best known for her 66 detective novels and 14 short story collections. She is
mostly famous for Peril at End House (1932), Murder of Peter Ackroyd (1926) and
Murder on the Orient Express (1934). Many many happy returns of the day
dear Agatha.
