Description

However, for high-value or heavy shipments outside the UK and Turkey, we strongly recommend option 2 or 3.

Friends become enemies, and Jess discovers how easy it is to switch sides, and how sides can be switched for you, sometimes without you even knowing. Mother” – she is never named, her family of origin and pre-marital life sketched so lightly as to suggest a wilful, defiant incuriosity – is almost without redeeming features: spiteful, devious, petty, mean, treacherous.Her voice is unique: we get to see India through the eyes of Rachel, a Jewish American, married to Dhruv, and her mother-in-law, Swati.

Her methods of control – frequently likened by Jay to those of a brutal dictator – rely on constant wrong-footing, the capricious dispersal and withholding of favours and rewards, the sudden thump of a punishment, usually undeserved. Floyd, by the way, is no slouch himself, writing an eight-page hatchet job of his brother’s work, just as Theroux’s brother Alexander did.Also, there were many deeper themes that a book club could discuss - cultures clashing, family clashing, marriage clashing.
