A compulsive read

Terror novel! The ending was the least fav part but it was a big shocker! The way it's written and explained is great. Justifies the booker prize award.

i'm surprised there isn't much of discussion in this thread ... i suppose that is one of the pitfalls of listing people's latest read ... u hear new things but there isn't enough to chew on ! would be good if we could pick a book of the month(like a book club), have a read n then discuss/converse about it ...

Chinaman - the legend of Pradeep Mathew by Shehan Karunatilaka. Fantabulous !!

Happy that the book won the DSC Prize for South Asian Literature in 2011. Well deserving !

Thanks to Prabhu for recommending

Liked very much "காலா...அருகே வாடா''- a short story by Krishna Davinci published in the last issue of the weekly, Ananda Vikatan. Packed with very correct facts and information. An eye-opener to many on many matters! With positive message about healthcare methods available to us.

I was reading 'One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich' coz I'm an uptight prick. But technically it wasn't the latest as I got OUTed!

Great literature. I'd not let anyone tell otherwise.

jus finished 'The wise man's fear' by Patrick Rothfuss,book 2 of the kingkiller Chronicles. terrific read, but there will be another interminably long wait for book 3

still plodding through Orhan Pamuk's 'snow' can never seem to finish it though ....
