The Mistress of Spices: A Novel by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni
This was a really gorgeous book. It's obvious that Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni is a poet in the way she writes her story. Oddly it reminded me stylistically of a lot of my attempts at disjointed and non-linear storytelling. Her story is mostly linear but has moments with backstory, etc.
The story itself is magical realism and made me want lots of Indian food.
