Almost like a poetry, deeply moving, engraved roots in your heart with such beautiful lucidity that will make you astonished. It reminds me Covenant of Water by Abraham Verghese but not like that tome, it's all about ambiance that is yarning for all your heart. If you have read the book then you will understand what you are getting inside this book. An astonishing piece of work that leaves us a legacy that we can find proudly, a sensitive work that left mark on your mind, it will be with you for a long time I am sure. Poignant narrative punctuated with witty sharp edges that delicately transpires something very familiar, you will not just read the word you will breathe with each character. THE ELSEWHEREANS: A Documentary Novel by Jeet Thyle Blurb: A genre-defying novel that melds fiction, travelogue, memoir, a ghost story, a family saga, photographs and much else into a tale that unfolds across continents and decades. From the backwaters of Kerala to the streets of Bombay, Hong Kong, Paris and beyond, Thayil maps the restless lives of those shaped by separation - both the ones who leave and the ones left behind. A hypnotic meditation on migration, loss, and the fragile threads of identity from one of the most brilliant voices in contemporary literature, The Elsewhereans is a novel of retrieval and reinvention - an elegy for vanished worlds, and a reckoning with the histories we inherit. Verdict: Highly recommended. Thank you for the magnificent book @harpercollinsin @thayilesque #Theladylivesinbok #Bookrecommend #Mustreads #Bookstagram
