Authored by Chandramoulee Palani (PGP 2001), a Difteeno (D-15) as he would proudly proclaim himself for eternity, his dorm-name is Bacardi.

While the themes belong to the Boys and Girls of that era, who get to look back at their lives and seek meaning – every reader will delight from the eternal message of belonging and the enduring power of family love!
