Book Review: Behind The Beautiful Forevers by Katherine Boo
A STORY of human survival against the odds. Set in a Mumbai slum the plot follows the lives of residents rocked by crime, recession and terrorism.
Beautifully composed and at times surprisingly witty Boo’s debut is a masterpiece. It is a breathtaking portrayal of contemporary India.
Portobello, £9.99
Verdict: 5/5
