Lyrically masterful, I cannot say enough wonderful things about the language in this book. I wish I could read it in the original Hindi. It is my understanding that the author and the translator are lovers of sound and worked hard to ensure that this was not only a great story but a beautiful read. This book is the subject of my upcoming paper, so I am sure I will have much more to say about it then.
