Books I have enjoyed reading lately
Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts - set in Bombay (mostly); what a story-teller … I lauged and I cried.
see http://www.shantaram.com/ (I see that Johnny Depp has optioned the movie rights).
Sylvanus Now by Donna Morrissey (I haven’t read her other book Kit’s Law) - 1950s, set in Newfoundland, the sad story of the decline in the fish stocks and a disappearing way of life.
