Title: Imaginative and challenging, but fails in delivery.
Product review: Vikram Chandra's tale of mythic India weaved in with modern times is a very imaginative, epic tale , but it turns out to be too long-winded, rambling at times and unresolved in my view. He switches back and forth from the past to the present rather well, although, at times, I thought that maybe if you separated the times, they, in themselves, would have been very good books. The story on the whole lacked cohesiveness. It seemed that Chandra kept writing more and more without staying focused on the story at hand. There was too much to digest which didn't leave too much thought to savor. What I really disliked, however, was the latter part of the book where it didn't make sense with the bloodthirsty doctor and the bomb. I felt very disappointed.
