Arundhatti's book set in kerala is an exceptional fiction based on the irny and intensity of caste system in india. she is the most inspiring and audacious women ever. the 5 2'' and raised check-boned lady makes a great debut.

I was given this book to read as an English Assignment. I think her writing style and descriptive form make the book what it is, reviting and suspensful.

<< The most poetic book I ever read. >>

Those are someone else's words, but I had to repeat them cause they are the truth.
A book that I'll definitely have in my home library and also wholeheartedly recomend for reading.
