Chinaman by Shehan Karunatilaka- Book Review!
book that was recommended by a friend, who was reading The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida A Booker Prize winner book by the author. The author of Chinaman too!
The moment I heard about the title! The Australian bowler Brad Hogg came to my mind a bowler who is known as the chinaman bowler.

UK flashback 2023!
The Memories, come flashing back!
The vivid details, the signages, The bustling streets, the hop on and hop off buses,
The Lego store, Leicester Square and Times Square coming together in my memory!
The M&M World! Piccadilly Circle written faintly!
And the huge square, Trafalgar Square with the lion roaring.

The erratic weather changing,…

The tour began with all those interested assembling in a room and introduction of themselves, and what interested them about…
