    I did’nt like the way u wrote “the first Proustian to reach there will be gifted an entire set of Marcel Proust’s multi-volume novel.” as if there is some competition or u r seeking some attention.

    Will I have to attend the entire session?

    • The Delhi Walla on September 20, 2012 at 12:58 PM

      No. You may pick up and go.
