Brij’s One More Idea

Kiran Desai gets Booker:

“It was seven, almost eight years of work, writing half stories, quarter stories, stories in eighths, of broken people, difficult lives and I picked the novel out of it”

I guess I should read this novel just to get some ideas on post-retirement options. Inheritance of Loss is a story of NRI who lives a reclusive retirement in the foothills of the Himalayas.
