Book Club #5

My new book name is Homeless bired
I have read 25 pages this week, now I am in the page 75
I understand 85%

Summary:
As they leave the next morning, Chandra asks Koly to make sure Hari has a marigold garland from her should he die in Varanasi. Koly promises. Hari has a hard time on the trip, beginning before they even reach the train. The dust is overwhelming and the heat is suffocating. Hari sleeps most of the time, his head rocking on his shoulders as though it is not even attached. Before the train leaves, Koly sees many urns being place in the baggage car. Koly sees this as a prediction of this ill-fated trip.
When they arrive in Varanasi, they are met by friends of the Mehtas. Koly is not introduced to the couple as Hari's wife and she guesses this is because the Mehtas are embarrassed that they had to marry their son.

I have finished my book already, that is The Pearl. I learned how to think about money between relatinship with people, I like this book, I learned many kinds of personality of people in this world. There are not everyone has good thinking, and money is not the most important thing.
