Stories and excerpts of novels from India since the country attained its independence in 1947. The subjects range from religious strife, to the assault on the senses of the many people one is surrounded by.

我太太的印度同學送他的書,結果被我搶來看了。
- Sara Suleri的自說自話式散文是我很喜歡的那種(cf. Kate Zambreno, Maria Stepanova),這本選的Meatless Days我之後應該會去想辦法搞來讀。話說雞佛我也不敢吃...
- Arudhati Roy寫的微物之神,每次去圖書館挑書的時候都會看到,但我就是一直都沒挑起來看的那個... 他選的這篇還蠻好看的
- Amit Chauduri寫的故事蠻夢幻的,像是閃閃發亮的夢一樣
- Rohinton Mistry寫的是關於集郵跟寂寞的故事
結論就是印度人都蠻會寫有點難過的故事,然後有的時候會用很難的英文單字... 整本看很久但蠻好看的,推推。
