A Suitable Boy is Vikram Seth's epic love story set in India.
Funny and tragic, with engaging, brilliantly observed characters, it is as close as you can get to Dickens for the twentieth century.
The story unfolds through four middle class families - the Mehras, Kappoors, Khans and Chatterjis.
Lata Mehra, a university student, is under pressure from her mother to get married.
But not to just anyone she happens to fall in love with.
There are standards to be met and finding a husband for Lata becomes a family affair in which all the members are to play a part.
Now with the internet audiobooks are a lot more accessible and easier to obtain than normal books, going online for them is quick, simple and saves time that would be other wise spend trawling through stores trying to find one you really want. Many sites offer a few free downloadable introductory titles, to get you started and no doubt hooked on the splendour of them. What better way to spend a Saturday evening than to sit back, relax and enjoy a good audiobook, instead of renting a dvd or stagnating in front of the television. Unlike rentals, they can be kept for life and enjoyed again and again. |
