The Lowland
By Jhumpa Lahiri
Rating Great
A story beautifully written about family, terrorism and love. Two brothers that are so close they can sense each others presence, but so different there lives will be separated by beliefs. The journey begins in Calcutta India during political unrest. Subhash is quiet, reserved and wants to please.  Udayan is outgoing curious and strong willed. Both brothers have two different destinies, but one will assume the responsibilities of the other. A brother that loves the other so much, his life is altered for the other ones actions. Written with picture clarity of events and scenery, The Lowland is a movie for the mind.
