3 Novels to Read Before Travelling to Southern India
I’m going to southern India in a few months! Here’s my reading list. Why are two these books over 700 pages long? That’s just crazy.
The Covenant of Water by Rohinton Mistry - By all accounts, this book is supposed to be amazing, but seriousl?! It’s over 700 pages long ( 36 hours on audible). I’ll need to get both formats so I can get through it more quickly.
The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy - This was my mother-in-law’s favourite book - now feels like a good time to pick it up.
*A Fine Balance by Rohinton Mistry - This one is not set in Southern India, but it’s considered to be the great Indian novel for the 20th century so it feels like it should go on the list.
