A review by booksntea99
East, West by Salman Rushdie

5.0

One of the books which introduced me to Postcolonial studies and a vast array of awesome authors: Kiran Desai, Jhumpra Lahiri, Nam Le, Rana Dasgupta, etc. I could write about any of those authors, tbh. I love it how these books question everything, give you a totally different perspective, and, in the most obnoxious literary student way possible, write back. I feel like I was such an uneducated idiot before and said literature broadened my horizon so very much and made me think thoughts I've never thought before. I'm very glad about that.
