A review by retharogo25
The Glass Palace by Amitav Ghosh

3.0

I have mixed feelings about this book. I really liked that it gave me a lot of insight and information about India, Burma, and Malaysia in the late colonial period. It isn't a topic I know much about. However, just as you get into a storyline, the plot moves on. I wasn't enamored of any of the characters but could appreciate the realistic glimpse of a variety of people's lives as they are entangled in their circumstances and eras.

I would recommend this book to anyone interested in that part of the world, that period of history.
