review 1: This is a hilarious novel. I find the main protagonist Robin 'Einstein' Varghese totally believable. Its easy to draw similarities between Robin and a lot of characters we come across in real life. Too many funny moments and situations make this a very interesting read. Robin tries to portray himself as smart, intelligent, and self-righteous but only comes across as a (lovable) jerk. Please do not read this in a public place especially when you dont have company. Situations in this book will make you burst into fits of uncontrollable laughter. You could end up scaring people around you. :)
review 2: Having been an avid reader of Sidin's blog even back when he was in his second year at IIM-A and having loved his unique self-deprecating sense of humor then, it wa... mores a no brainer that I would immensely his first book, more so when it dealt with the travails of a freshly minted B School recruit at a consulting firm. The main protagonist, Robin Varghese, 'Einstein' almost seems like he is based on the author himself, more so because the book is written in first person in the diary format. As if that weren't enough, he is also Mallu, he is also a Christian and he is also a B School graduate, a not-so-good one at at that.Suffice to say that this book will leave all readers with sore throats and tummy aches from all the hollering and laughing that it brings along with it. Have to surely pick up the remaining two books in the Dork trilogy and get around to devoring them with equal gusto. less
