At Christmas, I read 'The Odd Angry Shot' by William Nagle (Australia). A moving and graphic account of Australia's role in the Vietnam War.
Then I read 'Snow Country' by Yasunari Kawabata (Japan). A traditionally written account of a visitor's relationship with a Geisha in the mountains by a Nobel winning writer.
Now I am reading 'The Calligrapher's Secret by Rafiq Schami (Syria) which is about two people from different communities who fall in love in Damascus.
Next I am going to read 'Americana' by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie (Nigeria)
