This book pulls you into a world that, unless you were raised Indian, you cannot possibly have any idea about. It's a powerful lesson about another culture, that sheds light on our own. Each story is tightly written, not a single wasted word, and some are deeply moving. This is an astonishing accomplishment for such a young author.
Excellent book.
This is a powerful book. The stories have insinuated themselves into me and the ones I connected with are continuing to pull at me, almost weighing me down, as if I've added something to myself. I'm not meaning to sound all philosophical, but I'm having a hard time explaining how these stories make me feel so I hope you'll forgive me if I don't make much sense.
