Just finished Gora by Rabindranath Tagore. Curious what everyone else thought.
Just finished listening to *Gora* by Rabindranath Tagore. Really liked it. It was my first long Indian fictional read... or listen ๐ . I'm honestly not much of a reader, I mostly consume books as audiobooks.
What I enjoyed the most was how well the characters were written. By the end I was genuinely invested in quite a few of them. Paresh and Anandamayi were probably my favorites.
Funny enough, both the characters whose names start with "H" somehow managed to annoy me throughout the book ๐.
The only thing I wasn't completely satisfied with was the ending. It felt a bit abrupt to me. Maybe it's because I just wanted to spend a little more time with these characters before it ended.
Curious what everyone else thinks. Did you like the ending, or was it just me? Also, if you have any recommendations for Indian fiction with memorable characters, I'd love to hear them. Doesn't have to be from the same time period. I don't read a lot, but I do listen to audiobooks quite regularly. #entertainment source
