![]() ![]() Reading pleasure is such a subjective thing that I am sure there are very few works that are unanimously loved. ![]() But then that is not unusual for the Booker, or any literary prize for that matter. I have to say that I am somewhat surprised that it won. It was the only book I did not manage to complete in time for the announcement of the winner. I started this book on 26th September, but found it very difficult to get into, so I switched to one or two others. Almost two months after the winner of the Booker Prize was announced, I have at last finished the sixth book from the shortlist, The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida by Shehan Karunatilaka, the book which in fact won. This week I have at last come to the end of two reading marathons, one has been spectacular, the other has been a slog. ![]()
