Orbis Terranum

By Suze on Thursday, August 13, 2009

Came across this, here and it sounds interesting – 10 Books from 10 Countries in 10 Months.. Am looking to expand my reading horizon, so here’s to reading more literature from outside of my usual hunting grounds.

Initial list of books (with more to come) below. Since I’m coming to the party late, am including a few books I have read since March..

  • In Other Rooms, Other Wonders by Daniyal Mueenuddin (Pakistan)
  • The Thing around your Neck by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie (Nigeria)
  • The Yacoubian Building by Alaa Al Aswany (Egypt)
  • The Line of Beauty by Alan Hollinghurst (UK)
  • Reaching Bombay Central by Shama Futehally (India)

    Hey,

    I have been reading your blog since your college days, but have never commented on it.The book list is wondrous and I too share your passion for books, just wondering though how you get the time to read so much??A review would be excellent, at least for time starved people like me, and keep writing girl!

    P Adhikari.
