Reading suggestions
I'm currently volunteering as an english teacher in Narikudi, Tamil Nadu. While I'm here I have some reading challenges, I'm currently reading Murakami's Blind Willow Weeping Woman, which is a collection of short stories... I find it difficult to read these consequetively, so I read one and put the book up for a while. One the book on the bookshelf in the volunteers room is the Good Earth by Pearl S Buck. It looks interesting, but wondered if anyone had any thoughts about it. Will it be easy enough to read while Im dealing with a lot of other stuff around me???? I'd appreciate your comments.

Hi T - I haven't read Good Earth so I can't fill you in on what it might be like. Oprah did select it as one of her bookclub books a while back - not sure if that persuades you to read it now or not!
Update on Good Earth. My flat mate got to it before me and has about finished it in 3 days -she says its written really well and is engaging and she's learning alot from it too... my next book
