Anyone read Nadeem Aslam's latest: The Blind Man's Garden? His weakest work yet, I thought, with more contrivances of plot than one expects from him.
However, some passages are so so so lyrical, they float right up...yes, to the aforementioned stratosphere.

Every time I read Nadeem Aslam, I am taken to a word-lit place. At the end of the story or the book, coming back becomes that much harder.
