An Isolated Incident Paperback – January 1, 2017

This is a great book, for our times and for any time. Author's language is a sheer delight. The exploration of tragedy is deep and meaningful, not suffering from the usual sketchiness - a rare find. The not-so-simple love story is painted with gentle watercolors worthy of a ukiyo-e. The way Soniah Kamal describes how bookish philosophy meets the lightning speed and hurricane strength of life is nothing short of striking and gives a lot of food for thought. Recommended to anybody who wants a deeper look into the human soul and its world.

Interesting story but a little simplistic in the writing. Suitable for an older YA reader.

Read this for my book club...leader of the group is personal friends with the author. It was OK...certainly helped me to understand the conflict there a bit better. And she touches on a lot of the philosophical questions that confront people engaged in war.

Loved this book. Very strong characters and plot line. A definite page turner. Strongly recommend this book.

Soooo boring...I gave a star just for her English.
