Title: Wonderfully Surprising Storytelling
Date: Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2022
Review: This 'Sheroe's' epic journey entangles the emotionally muddy heart like the roots of a tidal mangrove swamp. Plot momentum builds carefully and consistently to a fever pitch that will have you clinging to every word. Told from the viewpoints of several remarkable characters, the story unfolds with a traveler's lexicon of language to a place of unpredictable severity and heartwarming humanity.

Title: A fascinating glimpse into the history of this endlessly complex land
Date: Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2019
Review: For thousands of years, the history of what is India today has been shaped by large-scale population movements. Ever since the arrival of anatomically modern humans tens of thousands of years ago, the subcontinent has been wracked by periodic invasions and flows of refugees. Among the most prominent were the Aryan migration in the second millennium BCE and the Islamic conquest late in the first millennium CE. And, in recent times, the partition between India and Pakistan. Yet these huge historical population shifts don't tell the whole story. Lesser-known events have affected tens of millions of lives through the ages. And one of those is central to the tale Amitav Ghosh tells in this engaging Indian historical novel, The Hungry Tide.

Millions of refugees in eastern India

It's little recognized in the United States. But the 1971 Bangladeshi War of Independence from West Pakistan was a cataclysmic event that resulted in the death of as many as three million people; an estimated ten million Bengali refugees fled across the border to India, and some thirty million were internally displaced. And, of course, the impact of those events reverberated through the region for many years thereafter as Bengali refugees attempted to settle in the already crowded cities and towns of West Bengal, Odisha, and Bihar. Ghosh's story revolves around a smaller-scale movement of people that was rooted in those events.

The background to this Indian historical novel

Although the Bangladeshi War of Independence took place in 1971, refugees were still pouring into India in the late 1970s. An estimated 40,000 of them made their way to the Sundarbans on the coast of West Bengal. There, mangrove forest dominates the land. Innumerable, fast-shifting streams form low-lying islands as the Ganges and Brahmaputra rivers converge and flow into the Bay of Bengal. The refugees settled on Marichjhapi, an island that was the equivalent of an American national forest and wildlife sanctuary. The Communist government of West Bengal first tried to oust them with an economic blockade that drove thousands on the island to the point of starvation. But when even that failed to force the refugees to leave, police began forcibly evicting them and opened fire in the process. Between 500 and 1,000 died.

An eventful—and perilous—adventure

In The Hungry Tide, Ghosh treats these events as background. The novel tells the story of two people, a young Indian-American scientist and an older Indian man whose lives converge in the Sundarbans. Piyali (Piya) Roy is a cetologist who has come to India to study river dolphins, a species discovered in the Irrawaddy River in Myanmar (then part of India). Kanai Dutt owns and runs an agency in New Delhi that provides translation and interpreting services to government and the private sector alike.

River dolphins, man-eating tigers, and a massive cyclone

At Kanai's invitation, Piya travels to his aunt's hospital on one of the islands. Based there, she sets out in search of river dolphins in the waters that divide the islands. When she nearly drowns at the hands of the guide and soldier imposed on her by government regulations, her life is saved by a local fisherman. And that is just the beginning of Piya's eventful—and perilous—adventure. As the action unfolds, both she and Kanai as well as the fisherman will encounter man-eating tigers and a massive cyclone. Amitav Ghosh has written an Indian historical novel that is at once exciting, suspenseful, and deeply rewarding for any student of history.

Title: A Pleasant Surprise
Date: Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2018
Review: I knew nothing of this author until a friend mentioned that I might enjoy this well crafted description of an exotic locale and people......all woven together with a vivid description of the flora, fauna, geology, meteorology of the largest island and river delta in the world. I am a botanist by training and greatly enjoyed the way that respect for the natural world was thematic throughout. Add to this a love story, life and death situations, excellent character development and your time spent is well rewarded.

Title: A Beautiful, Compelling Read
Date: Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2020
Review: I really enjoyed this book by Amitav Ghosh. I read it right after finishing the Ibis trilogy, also by Ghosh. It's a really unusual story about a cetologist who hires a local fisherman as her guide. The story is set in the unusual tidewater and Mangrove forest region on the coast of the Indian Ocean between India and Bangladesh, a place where tigers regularly stalk human beings to this day. The writing is remarkably perceptive and intelligent, and the plot takes wonderful unexpected turns that kept me thoroughly entertained. You can rest assured I'll be reading more of this author's works.

Title: Learned a lot
Date: Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2021
Review: The story line was good and the characters interesting. And I also learned a lot — not only about the slew of tiny islands off India’s coast — but also quite a bit about the culture of the residents of these tiny isles. Warning: the part about the killing of the tiger was quite graphic.

Title: great read at a great time
Date: Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2014
Review: I read this book while on a year-long field research season in Thailand studying wild monkeys. I could relate to many of the things Piya went through while trying to navigate her way through the people and the wilderness of a foreign land, and identified with her frustrations and her joys. This book was brilliant company on a lonely island waiting for monkeys.
