Why read it?
1 author picked Animal's People as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The books I love the most are the ones that break patterns and speak disruptively, that take on deeply specific perspectives, and that challenge me to pay attention to individual words.
The voice of the narrator in Sinha’s novel is totally arresting: raw and brutal. The result is an immersion into the human costs of environmental degradation.
From Jack's list on humans and the natural world.
