The Housekeeper and the Professor by Ogawa Yoko
This book was on the recommended reads list at my local library. I am so glad I picked it up. Such a rare relationship detailed with similicity. And add math to it. A very different kind of book and I highly recommend it.
The Thing Around Your Neck by Adichie Nogozi
A collection of short stories that take you deep into Nigeria and life there. Some haunting, some scary, some beautiful. Life around the world is sometimes so similar.
One Flew over the Cuckoo’s nest by Ken Kesey
Funny, witty, scary and sad. The characters were beautifully defined. I can still see Mrs.Ratched and the Chief with his mop in front of my eyes. A good read
The Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishiguro
The second book by the author I am reading. For some reason I expected a since fiction more like Never let me go – boy what a change. I did not love this book because I found it a little too dry. It more documentary kind than a masala movie kind. If you get the difference. It was good but dragged on. A great peep into the English butler’s life.
