I don't know many Asian authors. At the top of my head, I can only name of a few right now; Ming Fong Ho, Catherine Lim, Anita Desai, Amy Tan (whose novels i think are very whiny), Arundhati Roy er... Yea see. Can someone please recommend some good novels by Asian authors? There are only 2 books that I actually like from the list of authors (points to the left) is Following the Wrong God Home by Catherine Lim and The Village by The Sea by Anita Desai. I'm pretty sure there's more good Asian lit out there right? I'm just not in the know.
