[lbo-talk] Amitav Ghosh?

[wrobert at uci.edu]

The first book of Ghosh's I read was The Shadow Lines, and it still is my
favorite of his texts.  I also really love his science fiction novel, The
Calcutta Chromosome.  Both are considerably less linear in structure,
particularly with The Shadow Lines, which travels from flashback to
flashback....
