The Hungry Tide

The Hungry Tide by Amitav Ghosh, is another book I can really recommend, after reading it on a trip about six months ago and the book almost engulfing me in it's river environment from the Bay of Bengal, despite the amazing historical landscape surrounding me in my own travel destination. The stories told, the people, the river - all had a magnetic effect on my imagination.




I have previously also enjoyed Ghosh's books, like The Glass Palace.
