Title: Definitely worth reading
Review: The book flows very well. The realism of lives revealed to Tilo is chilling. I was specially dumb sturk by the story of Lalita. The cause of battered women, especially Indian is usually lost in honor and societal pressures. It is very difficult for members of an individualistic culture to understand the societal demands placed on a Indian woman. With her really great manner of writting, Ms. Divakaruni is able to present the case in simple terms.Even though the book flows very well, I think the ending of the book did not do justice to the rest of book. It was the sort of anticlimax I was not expecting and was not prepared for. The reason for Raven to come after Tilo was not strong enough. Reason for Tilo's intense desire for Raven still needed work.On the whole, however, the book is worth reading. I will never walk into an Indian grocery store and look at the woman behind the counter the same way agai
