ज़िंदगी, ज़िंदगी भर नहीं है दोस्त! ज़िंदगी कभी वेटिंग टिकट है, कभी तय रिजर्वेशन के बावजूद बग़ल वाले पसेंजर से सीट की अदला-बदली है। कभी सीट के नीचे से झोले की चोरी है तो कभी शौचालय की जंज़ीर से बंधी मग है।.

The seat of the Trelawney family for over 700 years, Trelawney Castle was once the jewel of the Cornish coast.

But as the centuries passed the Earls of Trelawney, their ambition dulled by generations of pampered living, failed to develop other skills.

Le timbre légèrement éraillé de Stéphane Ronchewski vous plonge dans un récit haletant et plein d'humour. Il aura suffi d'une seule mauvaise, très mauvaise idée. Rien de plus. Un 31 décembre, dans une petite ville suédoise, un individu entre dans une banque pour la braquer, ressort bredouille, et fait malencontreusement irruption dans un appartement pendant une visite groupée. Ce qui est évidemment une très mauvaise idée, puisque le braquage se transforme alors en prise d'otage.

God would probably frown down upon such usage, but if you wanted to put your feet up and chuckle along with some dark humor, then God would surely approve. For fans of the original book, this isn't for you. You won't like this. Don't listen to it. Don't be mad at me for writing it, though because, if you think about it, I am still getting the important stories out there. Kind of.
