This is an epic novel which my Book Group loved. It is very long so make sure to choose a time when everyone will have plenty of time to read.
Strengths are that it does not shy away from difficult stories, troubled times or unhappy endings. The reader feels a part of the sweep of family life and learns new things: St Thomas Christians in India; surgery; leprosy and more.
