A review by fazli5678
The Hungry Tide by Amitav Ghosh

4.0

A pretty good book! Some might think it takes a while to really kick into gear, at least my classmates thought so, but I liked the deliberate set-up! The only parts of “The Hungry Tide” that I didn’t care for were Nirmal’s transcripts, and that’s only present in the first half of the book. Worth a read, especially if you’re into South Asian culture.

(Read this book for my “Readings in Global Literature” class)
