Do NOT read this book. Seriously, it sucked so badly. I read the whole thing because I hate giving up and I was in Italy on a train and I needed something to read. Put yourself in Italy on a train, but do not leave yourself alone with this shitty book.

When I was cramming to learn as much about one of the earliest cultures in human history and followed the development of sanskrit as a language down the Indus river and the later political division of India and Pakistan for my 2006 Nanowrimo I figured I was pretty much done with what I had learned once I had finished my novel and November ended. Then I started reading Kim and Rudyard Kipling's story made all that late night reading come to life for me. The book does include a map of all the places visited but it was nice not to need it because the story flowed so well that I wouldn't have wanted to disrupt it to follow a map. Where Mogli, Kipling's jungle savvy boy is an exploration of man's relationship with nature, Kim the street urchin is his vehicle for reexamining the tenuous relationship between Britain and its then colonial subjects. Kim's story brings together a wide array of cultures: British, Tibetan, Muslim and Hindu. Unsure of his own origins at first, Kim picks and chooses the pieces he likes from all these different cultures. As a very clever child, the adults around him take advantage of him for their own cross purposes. Of all the different relationships in the book it was Kim's role as a chela to the Tibetan lama that interested me the most. It seemed that the countryside was the most open to them when they traveled together and I liked being along for the ride. The next most interesting character is the horse trader Mahbub who used Kim to gather information and pass along secrets encoded in non-sense horse trading information. The most poignant piece should have been Kim's dead soldier father but those details seemed the most forced and unnatural of all the other pieces of the story. Regardless of the few minor quibbles I have with Kim, I enjoyed the book thoroughly.

Very worth reading, for so many reasons. Vikram Seth has a lyrical writing style that, I suspect, would make any subject go down like honey. But his subject is not an easy one: he brings to life some of the defining developments of the twentieth century through the personal struggles of the three people whose lives he chronicles: his great uncle, great aunt and himself. Inspiring, harrowing. For those who want an intimate insight into the pain of Nazi Germany - both for the Jews and the Germans - this is a very good source.

I absolutely loved this book and will reread it from time to time. The story is about a caring and sensitive high school boy and is told to a "dear friend" who he pours his heart out to in letters. The book is small - 213 pages - and is geared to young adults, but I think it is appropriate for everyone. It is packed with feeling.

i like paul auster. i like his brooklyn and his self-induced suspense: the paranoia, the anxiety, the details of... i like art that is wound within and winding away from real life. i like it all so much that i'll forgive him for writing every book with a writer as the protagonist!

I never actually finished this book (although don't worry--I know all about the ending), but I think I might have, and I might have even liked it better if it had been marketed as a first novel and not the second coming. Why are novels on this topic 'struggling with identity' when men write them and 'chick lit about dating' when women do?
