I finished my literary journey to Greece with Zorba the Greek. That is a wild but fun story of two friends trying to find their place in the world.
I have moved on to India with A Suitable Boy. Here is what Google says about this novel:
A Suitable Boy is Vikram Seth’s epic 1993 novel about post-independence India, centered on Mrs. Rupa Mehra’s search for a husband for her daughter, Lata, amidst the lives of four large families in the fictional city of Brahmpur. Set in the early 1950s, the story intertwines personal drama, romance, and family politics with the country’s first general election, exploring themes of love, tradition, prejudice, and the complexities of a newly independent nation.
I will be in India for a few weeks, because the edition I got from the library has over 1,000 pages. What are you reading? Where should I go next in my 80 books around the world?
