10 Minutes 38 Seconds in This Strange World is excellent - I'll look for more from this author.
Quichotte impressive, as usual from Salman Rushdie. I'll have to reread it to appreciate the myriad references.
Now I'm halfway through The Testaments - so readable and exciting!
Highly recommend all three.
