I am rather on the fence re these short stories: I didn't hate them but I thought they lacked psychological insight/depth and also, they were relentlessly showing people's worst sides, which is not what I want to read right now. Still, I learnt a lot about life in Nepal.

so-soIf you don‘t mind short stories with zero resolution, this is the book for you. The stories convey a lot about life in #Nepal, but other than that, every story disappoints—they just end. The author also includes at least one se*ual act, whether the story needs it or not, in almost every story. I can‘t recommend this book, but it may work for others. Fortunately it‘s a pretty quick read. #foodandlit @Catsandbooks
It‘s that magic moment when my #foodandlit book mentions food! What are momos? Off to Google!

Starting my choice for this month's #BookedinTime
I am already fully engrossed in this dense, tragic history of Indian Independence at the close of the Second World War.

The American Centre used to send scholars to lecture us on this. To the extent that we've heard lectures where [American] scholars have told us how great Saudi Arabian society was, and that women could operate within their own sphere of life. After a while people said, well, if it's such a great and romantic system, perhaps the United States needs to import it themselves.
