After "A mud-colored sari," I tackled another novel published this year by the School of Leisure, "The path of Saraswati" by Claire Ubac. The action is always in India, but the time is not the same, when in a "mud-colored Sari" we met Leela in the 20s, here we follow the unusual fate of Jesse in the India today. Many years have passed, but prejudices die hard in India, and his mother died early that Jesse has had the misfortune born girl is rejected by his family and ends up running away to find his father went to work in Bombay. This novel is the story of a journey, the quest for Jesse and his friend Murugan India through a multifaceted, both attached to its traditions but also economically booming ..
A superb novel to read in 13 years!
