"Thoroughly gripping and beautiful. The tension built throughout against a backdrop of the beautiful Greek sea and landscape. Sensitively and boldly explored many taboo topics and their complexities through the main narrative and the descriptions of t"

| Ooooh, punchy. I've never been to India, but love reading about it. And I loved this. Vivid, cruel, blinding ending. Great stuff. ...more | |
