ER Lesson 8: 'Accent neutralisation and a crisis...'

Good evening, guys!

Finally, our first after-class post, with the link to our Extensive Reading of the day - and a couple of bonuses:


  • On its cover image, click on "Click to LOOK INSIDE!" to read the first pages of the novel Q&A, by Vikas Swarup, on Amazon if you're interested in knowing the book on which the film Slumdog Millionaire was (loosely) based;
  • Haven't seen the film itself yet, but would love to check a few opinions so you could decide whether it's really worth seeing? Well, you can have a look at its entry on IMDb - but beware of spoilers!;
  • OK, so you're the visual type and can't actually afford to spend much more than two minutes of your precious time on finding out more about the film? Here's the link to one of its trailers;
  • But if you're here just for the fun of it, this is the perfect stuff for you.


My intention was obviously to direct you to the call centre scene from here, but I simply couldn't find it! If anyone manages to do so, please leave a comment with the link - thanks a lot! :)


P.S.: I've actually read the novel (besides seeing the film at least twice, yes), so if you like its beginning enough to order a copy and would like someone to discuss it with, just let me know.
