One Amazing Thing
By Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni
Voice/Hyperion, 2009. 220 pgs. Fiction
When nine disparate characters are trapped together after an earthquake, each of them takes a turn telling "one amazing thing" about his or her life.
While it took me a while to get used to the voice of this book, I enjoyed hearing each story from these trapped people. All of the characters reflect on their lives as they wonder if they will ever be rescued from the passport and visa office. Each tells in part why they were intending to travel to India and the background on why they were in the visa office that particular afternoon.
