QUESTION 311

Julian Barnes wrote a book called Arthur and George.

It deals with a real life incident on England.
This man George(X), was a half British, half Indian lawyer called George Edalji. George was wrongly convicted of mutilating animals. But this chappy Arthur came to his rescue.

X

The wrongful conviction lead to the establishment of the court of criminal appeal.

HOW DO WE BETTER KNOW THE ABOVE MENTIONED 'ARTHUR'?

Okay, on a lighter note,

Who is the author of this poem?
This will prove to be the ultimate literature test! ;)
If you can't get the author, comment on the poem, if you liked it!

Not for the first time
Was that feeling,
So enticing
I've felt it before, of course,
But not with so much force

I've seen her many a time
On Tv,net and playtime!
She's from Switzerland, they said
Sadly, no attention I paid
Quite an infatuation this,
Addictive, she certainly is!

She came home a few days back
My mouth watered as self control, I lack!
Strangely, I wasn't the only one
Others too, were after the precious one!
I thought, Never mind, I'll beat 'em to it,
Else, call me a dimwit!

That night, her cold room I entered,
Ah! There she was, in the centre!
I carefully removed her cover,
Ready to be eaten, me and my Lindt, united forever!
