Sous les lunes de Jupiter Tekijä: Anuradha Roy
Un livre construit peut-être de manière un peu complexe, mais cet effet "haché" sert au propos, et, finalement (et étrangement) rend bien le côté introspectif de la narration. Une belle découverte.

Nice story, nice writing. I loved reading about rural small-town India.
Beautiful! Three stories going on and all are interconnected. This takes place in a seaside town on the Bay of Bengal.

This will confirm your disappointment in humans, but confirm your conviction that this author has a voice that needs to be heard.
