The Village in the Jungle by Leonard Woolf
4.0
3.5 stars?
Hmmm this derives merit from the fact it's nothing like stories by today's standard. There is nothing to hope for the entire way through other than the mad buffalo dad "Appochchi". I came away with a dry taste in my mouth. Maybe because I've experienced these kinds of poor villages first hand? If you want to read about a poor village in a jungle in Sri Lanka in the early 1900s with a story of some kind then sure?
