Friday, December 10, 2010. Today I am grateful for those authors who let their non-mainstream selves show through their work. This increases our sensitivities to the lives and feelings of our brothers and sisters all over this planet.

The language Kiran uses in her book reveals, in a way nothing else can, the bright and dismal aspects of northern India and perhaps, by analogy, other places on earth that do not have a surfeit of material things.
Thank you, Kiran Desai, for allowing us into your alternate worlds!
