I am delighted to be a World Book Night giver and hope that whoever receives this book tonight will enjoy it as much as I did.
And then I picked it up from ARC Colchester
I was looking through the box of books that ardachy gave me at the Layer Fox BookCrossing meeting and found this one in there! Thank you karen07814, I already have a copy of this title in my 2011 WBN Book Box, but I will try to find a new reader for this book .
Amazon Editorial Review
Set in mid-1970s India, a subtle and compelling narrative about four unlikely characters who come together in circumstances no one could have foreseen soon after the government declares a 'State of Internal Emergency'. It is a breathtaking achievement: panoramic yet humane, intensely political yet rich with local delight.
