Rajorshi Chakraborti

The Man Who Would Not See (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Chakraborti is a Wellington based Indian writer of five novels and a book of short stories. I like the way Indian culture has become more mainstream in movies and music, so this novel was right up my alley, as he brings Indian culture to New Zealand. A good story, with many unpredictable twists and turns and insights into various viewpoints of the same series of events, as, interestingly, each chapter is written from a different character's point of view. This adds to the multiple layers of the plot. I'd like to know his trick of so smoothly switching his writing from a man's perspective to a woman's point of view, chapter by chapter. I give this novel a 4 out of 5.
