Midnight's Children by Salman Rushdie
This is a challenging book. It is written in first person and as the narrator's mind wanders, so does the story. Luckily it almost always jumps around in an entertaining way. Every now and then for a few paragraphs, though, his philosphising is incomprehensible without a great deal of effort and thought. I found it particularly interesting to learn more about India's history and some of the significant events it it. It is a good read but will take some time and effort. Worth it.
