What I really liked: Short
Me as a human, have never been interested in politics. That already keeps me away from books about politics. ‘The Year of Living Dangerously’ is historical fiction with Indonesian politics as a central theme. Yet, this book held my attention with its writing style. I could very easily relate with the Hindu Gods that have been mentioned. It was a unique style of comparing & contrasting characters with Gods based on traits. This is the first time I read a book with a dwarf as the main character. It was so refreshing and very different than the things already known and perceived.
There were multiple instances where I was little lost concerning chapters. I would have found my way back easier if the chapters had names.
Overall a good read- it made it to my list of “different and tried”
