Read Sea of Poppies on Amazon Kindle

Every once a while comes a story that transports you back in time, creates an imagery so vivid that the reader feels a part of the turbulence in the lives of characters thrown together by circumstances. Amitav Ghosh's Sea of Poppies is all that and more.

There is a widow from a remote village in Bihar with her low caste lover, a disgraced royal, a cocky servant boy and the orphaned daughter of his european master, an American sea-man with a mysterious past, an array of sailors, stoaways, convicts and many such intriguing personalities, all aboard the Ibis, a ship sailing to Mauritius from Calcutta. Diverse as the motley crew may sound, there is a string of thread that ties all their lives together. And Gosh weave that thread with great mastery. One that stands out out among the bevy of characters is the zamindar's gomusta, Baboo Nob Kissin. a caricature av best! A Krishna follower who seeks reincarnation of his beloved god in the American sailor Zachary. Sure of finding his clubtin with his new found god, he somehow manages to find a space on the ship and what follows is hilarious. Amitav has delicately sculpted this character with just the right amount of humor and without an iota of deprecation or disdain.

Amitav also does not give in to the temptation of mentioning the freedom movement even in the passing. Instead, he sticks to his canvass, describing in great detail the lucrative opium and slave trade between India and Britain, dynamics of the Asian economy in those times, the tightly drawn carte lines and rigid social customs. So all in all, Sea of Poppies is an intricately woven tale and Amitav deliberately leaves a few end loose. After all, it's the first of a trilogy! With such a glorious start, it's for sure that the tale unravelling over next twoan will be just as mesmerising. That the book did not win the Man Booker does not take away anything or even add to the fact that Amitav Ghosh is a marvellous, elegant and master story-teller. This is a must read on your Amazon Kindle. You can buy this book for you kindle from Amazon and probably download it directly to your Amazon Kindle.
