sanjeevp 's review for:
A Well-Tempered Heart
by Jan-Philipp Sendker
Julia, a lawyer with a semi-drifting life in New York city, and semi-estrangement from her mother and brother who live in San Francisco, starts hearing voices in her head and a Buddhist monk tells her it is a second soul that has entered her and she needs to liberate it. Then Julia goes to Burma, where her father came from and where her half brother U Ba introduces her to the troubled life of Nu Nu.
You get the drift...
The book has good description of life in Burma, sounds like the author knows it well. It is a sequel to the author's previous book, which I have not read. But I had no trouble following the book even without reading the precursor. This book is not a page turner and yet the book is not bad enough that you cannot finish it. If you can read about voices in the head, souls, reincarnation and stuff like that, you may like it.
