A review by slightlycereal
Nectar in a Sieve by Kamala Markandaya

1.0

i didn't like it. every time i tried to read this, my eyes would automatically start hurting. i know this is an actual thing happening in India and that's horrible, but the book was so boring and gloomy. if you took out every paragraph where the main character exclusively talked about rice, the book would be about 50 pages long. 180 pages of pain, 1/5 stars
