Zustandsbeschreibung
nie gelesen (nur darin geblättert), minimalste Lager-/Transportspuren, insgesamt sehr gepflegt und gut erhalten. Sehr schöne Hardcover-Ausgabe. Der Buchschnitt ist vorne (da wo die Regalwand ist, wenn das Buch im Regal steht) in "Rough cut" bzw. unbeschnitten, was sehr schön aussieht und so sein soll, d.h. keinen Fehler darstellt

'In part a perfectly paced mystery story, in part an Indian Wuthering Heights: a gorgeous and seductive fever dream of a novel, and a truly spectacular debut.'
Kirkus

'The God of Small Things´ genuinely is a masterpiece, utterly exceptional in every way, and there can be little doubt that posterity will place it very near the top of any shortlist of Indian novels published this century.'

'The quality of Ms. Roy's narration is so extraordinary - at once so morally strenuous and so imaginatively supple - that the reader remains enthralled all the way through to its agonizing finish... it evokes in the reader a feeling of gratitude and wonderment.'
New York Times
