hmmm looks like I need to see this. Conrad you should read A Passage to India and then come back and rewrite the beginning to just talk about that for empty spaces. Trust me.

qwe it's one of the most beautiful books ever written. The description of the caves is like, my favourite thing I've ever read. Maybe you were taught it poorly.

the first half was just not interesting at all. i didn't really care. a lot of the first half felt unnecessary. i liked the character of Aziz though

Cool, thanks for the recommendation, Keelan. That said, I generally try to stay away from using too many cultural references in my reviews (I mention 2001 in this review but that's a fairly obvious comparison), because I know that as a reader I find it frustrating when there's a cultural reference in a review that I fail to understand...



But I will definitely get my hands on that book.

or, if you don't understand the cultural reference, you can just read the book or watch the movie, etc. haha

But I meant that, you don't even have to make it a reference, you can just explain it so that even someone without knowledge of the book would be able to understand your point, that's what I try to do at least.

Right, I get what you mean. It's a tricky challenge, making cultural references really sound like more than name-drops.

people here seem to struggle to form their own opinions; needing someone else to tell them what is good and what is not

it's a sad state of affairs


also agree first disc is best

it sort of is... but with 40 minutes of new material and considering that those releases were vinyl only, i think this qualifies as a new release
