IN the history of Indian journalism, there will never be another humorist like Busybee; he was the Art Buchwald of India, the P.G. Wodehouse of our times and more, a writer with a brilliant sense of timing for satire and humour, but with a soft and sensitive pen.

And with a flow of words that could have readers rolling in their living rooms, offices and suburban trains on their way home; or moisteyed with emotion and sepia-tinged nostalgia. That was Busybee.

Oxford Bookstore, Mumbai cordially invites you to a book reading session of Behram Contractor’s ‘BUSYBEE-A Star Is Born’ (India's most widely-read nom de plume) by Farzana Contractor.
