The Tyre by E.C. Huntley, C.J. Dubois, Andrew Lownie
5.0
This isn’t my usual type of read but boy am I glad that I did! I really loved this book about a poor Indian family and their hopes and dreams. I was quickly hooked as the story gently draws you in and you find yourself rooting for Ranji and his family.
Ranji and his family’s lives are dependent on what he can scavenge by the roadside each day. One day a tyre falls from a passing truck, is this a blessing and a possible way out for him and his family or will it prove to be a curse? As Ranji becomes obsessed with trying to sell the tyre he begins to neglect all that he holds dear, including his wife whose eyes start to wander.
This is a book about hope and perseverance and about how a life of poverty can be lived with respect and dignity.
