While being driven to work in Bangalore and just passing the Electrical Crematorium...
... I read the most appalling headline:
Yes, Ryszard Kapuściński, my favourite journalist is dead. He died on January 23, 2007.
No one chronicled despotism and strife in the World like Ryszard Kapuściński. Any doubt? Read The Emperor, Imperium or any of his books.
Who will now follow Herodotus' footsteps?

so do they say the semi reason for death? He didn't last through a surgery right? too bad...
May he rest in peace. He was a great journalist, poet and philosopher of our time.
Are reading a book of his now?
