Finished reading Robin Cook's 'Crisis'. Not as impressive as some other novels by him. But the drama in the second half maintained a tempo & continued to be thrilling till the end. A suspense is cryptically solved in the end leaving it to the reader's intelligence to elaborate.
Finished reading, The fourth hand by John Irving and Cities of the plain by Cormac Mccarthy
i just read " Dancing with the Two-Headed Tigress" by Tina Biswas, I thought it would be a light fun read, though at times there were included some really nice, pithy lucid observations that made the author moreso than the characters intriguing. The characters themselves seemed to be too unfeeling and trite, thought this is what their personality are like, it seems sad that the characters do not grow per se as they forget and move on. The mother character especially in being described as a strong personality has been degraded in the feeling department. The daughter on the whole does not learn from her mistakes truly nor does her lover do so either...they both rather just escape to each other again. The ending felt like an attempt to make a smooth circle yet it rather seemed like the ends were just bunched up and crammed into a fitting ball shape.
"The Glass Palace" is one of my favourite novels, I also liked his "Calcutta Chromosome" which albeit hestitating at first,because it seemed like a sci-fi kind of book, turned out to be entrancing. I liked lesser so his latest novel "The Hungry Tide". Could you perhaps tell me a little of "In an Antique Land" please?Quote:
