Thaths: Thank you very much for this.
I recently read Ghosh’s “The Hungry Tide”, which I loved until the last 20 pages — I plan to write a review for posting on Goodreads describing what I love about the book and why the ending so disappointed me. EVERYBODY ELSE: Thank you so much for your wonderful responses to this query. I forwarded some of them to Nikki before I went to work this morning and will be sending along the rest of them now. I’m sure we can expect a note of effusive thanks from her within a day or two.
