I LOVE the novel Born Confused .. by Tanuja Desai Hidier
it has got to be one of the best feel good books ..
and the aspect of culture behind it .. wow .. i never knew that simplicity could be .. so moving ..
yes, yes .. i know .. it is a junior high text .. however, it has been written soo beautifully .. that it just made me want to cry!! *not in a soppy way of course*
I recommend it be read .. if you haven't done so yet .. but don't be expecting anything too drastic ..

Anway .. what are some of your favourite books..
Ohh.. Tolstoy is also one of the worlds GReaTesT!! :rolleyes:

I utterly dislike that book. It is full of stereotypes and completely unlike the culture it tries to show. Believe me, if you want to read about that culture, read Arundati Roy - The God of Small Things. Pure Genuis.

War and Peace, Leo Tolstoy is one of the greatest books ever written.
sweet.. thanks for the suggestion.. i'lll have to tryn get my hands on that book asap!! :)
