Are you a fan of Amitav Ghosh’s storytelling? Do
you have a collection of his books in your library? Then the latest reissued
version of his book, The Glass Palace, will interest you. Why, you ask?
Because the book has been reissued by the Borough Press. To its credit, Borough
Press has authors like Rebecca Kuang, Bella Mackie, Lionel Shriver, Chevalier,
Emilia Hart and Bridget Collin associated with it. The cover of the book, with
its lyrical form of art and the colour scheme catches the eye.
Ghosh took to Instagram with the reissued glimpse
of his book and wrote, “Love this new reissue of 'The Glass Palace” from the
Borough Press, with a wonderful introduction from the great Neel Mukherjee.”
If you haven’t read The Glass Palace, add it
to your June reading list. Revisiting the story is always a great idea. Some of
the books by the author that can be on your reading or re-reading list are: The
Circle of Reason, The Shadow Lines, The Calcutta Chromosome, The
Hungry Tide, Sea of Poppies and River of Smoke in fiction. In
non-fiction, In an Antique Land, The Great Derangement: Climate
Change and the Unthinkable, The Nutmeg's Curse: Parables for a Planet in
Crisis and Smoke and Ashes: A Writer's Journey Through Opium's
Hidden Histories, among others.
