Hooter: Bunch of short stories Dr. Shashi Tharoor wrote during his teenage years fictionalising real life experiences he had felt - quite a few to do with coming in terms with raging hormones.

Amongst raging teenage hormones, Dr. Shashi Tharoor had written some wonderful premises for his given age and that did leave me with awe. In terms of literary delight, though it is clear a lot of this raw potential was begging to be polished. It gives you a peek into his lifestyle and thought process as it is very clear that the fictional accounts are grounded on real life experiences that he had faced and then fabricated for poetic appeal. In this edition, he also adds a small foreword before each story to explain the background to when and why it was written. This book provides you an insight into how Dr. Shashi Tharoor of today also took effort in getting where he is but I still believe he swallowed a dictionary when he was born.
