I’m currently reading The Lowland by Jhumpa Lahiri, the tale of two brothers from Calcutta who are incredibly close, despite their differences, until tragedy strikes. I’ve read over half now and it’s a fantastic read. 

Here are a few sentences taken at random from p104…


“He had forgotten the possibility of so many human beings in one space. The concentrated stench of so much life. He welcomed the sun on his skin, the absence of bitter cold. But it was winter in Calcutta. The people filling the platform, passengers and coolies, and vagrants for whom the station was merely a shelter, were bundled in woolen caps and shawls.”

If you’ve published a teaser today, feel free to link to it here! Advertisements Share this:
