Why are so many of the good works recently published by people of South Asian heritage so depressing and often nihilistic? Can anyone recommend a work (particularly a novel) that isn’t?
Re: Why?
Sea of Poppies by Amitav Ghosh. Historical novel. All kinds of fun, if you're into seafaring tales and the opium wars time period.
