 About the book:


The Lolita Man is a suspense-thriller novel which is written by Bill James. It has been divided into 27 chapters. All the chapters are connected coherently. The suspense that starts from chapter one keeps a reader spell bound till the end. Further, it is published under the banner of Penguin books. This novel is a classic read that has been commended by notorious newspapers and magazines.

About the writer:


Bill James is pen-name of journalist James Tucker. This is his first crime novel which bagged an award in 1986. Bill James is married and has four kids. He is residing in Whales, United Kingdom.

Review:


Since it is a crime novel and it follows intense suspense which unlocks with great interest. The story revolves around Detective Chief Superintendent Colin Harpur which is having an affair with Ruth, widow of another officer. He came across a brutal rape case of an innocent school girl in a luxurious hotel room. As the time passes more cases were reported. Following his investigation, Harpur tour and watched after girl’s colleges as Lolita Man’s targets were teenager school girls. He put an eye on girls who were going by car or alone. Once patrolling around Ash-Tree girl’s school, he noticed a girl was walking alone to home, later he recognized her as Cherryl-Ann, daughter of his friend. Her real name was Jennifer but she liked to be called as Cherryl-Ann. She didn’t go to home rather than wander on streets. Through her odd behavior Harpur smelled Lolita man’s interest in her. He tried to give best security measures to her but unfortunately she was caught by Lolita man. She loved to write and through her diary excerpts Harpur caught Lolita man. This novel had been written from three perspectives; Harpur, Cherryl-Ann and Lolita man which keep reader’s eyes glued to the novel.
The story of this novel was good but it failed to appeal me. This novel has been written in year 1995; therefore, it depicts the scenario and writing style of that era which I couldn’t relate to. I like the character of Harpur. Despite of his differences with Iles, he decided to solve the case alone. Harpur’s character is the strongest character amongst all.

Early childhood education

Teaching is the most respectable and noble profession. The reward of a pre-school teacher is nothing more than the chant of an innocent child who has just discovered ‘I can do it!’

Did you ever observe the increasing academic competition among students? In our culture, education has been given immense significance both religiously and socially but unfortunately due to our lack of awareness it is mostly associated with the elementary, middle and higher schooling and less importance is given to early childhood education that is the most basic amongst all. Just like a farmer who first plough the ground, sow the seeds and watered the crops to get the fruit. Early childhood education works the same way. It prepares a child’s mind to understand basic chunks of information in a fun and creative way which helps him in developing their personality socially and emotionally. Further, it prepares them for bright future.

Seeking education has become an open challenge for students of all walks of life; brain busting concepts, projects, and above all the race of getting good grades has burdened innocent souls. In the meanwhile, if a child is already familiar with a school set-up, basic concepts and have a confident personality that ECED will give to them, schooling will become very easy. Once they conquer the ground of academics, conquering life battles will not be a challenge for them.

Death Warrant!

We live in a society where law of jungle prevails.The laws are not equal for everyone, therefore, human lives are getting cheaper and the recent increase in crime has worsened the whole condition. If any prompt action has not been taken then we are not far from turning into an animal kingdom. In order to restore peace and prosperity Capital punishment should be imposed throughout the country.

The crime has reached an alarming crest and citizens are spending life under dreadful conditions. Khan baba who was a loyal gardener was murdered by a street gang for not giving his motor-bike, a young woman was killed over a gold chain dispute, further, an old lady purchasing grocery was cold-handedly murdered for not giving her purse and there are numerous other cases that are reported but no action has been taken against these offenders. Hence, criminals are at large.

Capital punishment is the only solution to control these heinous criminal acts. For instance, in Saudi Arabia the laws are very strict. They do not spare anyone who commits crime, therefore, one can roam freely on streets without the fear of getting killed or robbed. There are many other countries those are crime-free states due to their strong law and order condition. It should begin from initial level. If a person breaks signal or parked wrong penalty him, further, if police has caught a thief he should be put behind the bars and punished accordingly.

Firm law and order condition is the backbone of any society. If a country wants to prosper its law and justice should be strong and equal for everyone. Death penalty should be imposed to make offenders a deterrent example for others.
