Someone on the internet recommended me this book.
I don't like the characters. They're boring.
Triton is a servant who takes care of his master. He's a great cook. In the background of the story, there are happening some events in pretty recent Sri Lanka's history. This could be gripping if the author made the main character more interesting. I imagine some crazy monologues of the character's thoughts. Unfortunately, this aspect isn't present and as a consequence, the book is tiresome.
There are no lines I'd like to share.
The end of the book made no impression on me whatsoever.
I'm disappointed. This could be so great but it's just not.
