Jen Mcclure jenmcclure — This was an odd book - both enjoyable and yet read like the script for an Indian movie. It won the Booker in 2006 and had a leading plug by Salman Rushdie. There were parts I really enjoyed but the underlying sadness and frustration of the novel (hence its title) made it hard to read at times. The comedy was usually followed by some bad thing and sometimes it worked and sometimes not. What I enjoyed was the slow pace she used to describe some of the background stories mixed up between other events. I did find the story of Biju, man who went to America was heart-breaking and the failed love of the main character Sai equally hard to taken. Even more hard to read is the background of the Judge, Sia's grandpa and the story of his wife. Yes, realism interspersed with such quirky events made the story twist and oddly believable. Tragedy makes a good Indian tale? Perhaps the events of India today makes the stories even more real.

Juan Valencia jcvp — Hell, it's summer and I'm entitled to some light reading, right? Exploits was just perfect. The main character is a Canadian boy who begins the novel pig headed, and selfish. He ends the novel only slightly redeemed, but by then the tone of self-congratulation is more ironic and easier to bear. The narrator's voice is engaging enough, but I found I was constantly irritated with his attitude. As the book progresses and the character grows, however, the jokes become much funnier and the book becomes a real joy to read.
