Funny Boy: A Novel in Six Stories by Shyam Selvadurai

challenging reflective sad medium-paced

3.75

the writing style of this book was so absorbing, it felt even lesser than the 320 pages that it amounted to. i really liked the way the coming-of-age tale of the narrator was handled and the nuance that went into the handling of the civil war as a backdrop, at least as much was possible through a child's lens.
