Once I got into this book, by hearing it on audio (and so conquering the mystery of the Indian names and how to pronounce them), I really enjoyed it: it is an exceptional first novel and a hauntingly beautiful glimpse of a culture (Southern India) which I knew nothing of. It even gives you something of an understanding of the caste system and its sometimes tragic effects.
