The results for the day I finished this book (July 14): Belfast 12°-19° and Melbourne 10°-15°.Ģ014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 American audiobook Australian author talk AWW book group Bookish (and not so bookish) Thoughts book list book review British Charlotte Wood chick-lit cooking COVID-19 eighties fiction film German gin grief-lit historical holidays Irish John Irving Melbourne Melbourne Writers Festival memoir movie music nonfiction podcast reading challenge review Sample Saturday Six Degrees of Separation Stella Prize swimming television Top Ten Tuesday translated twitter Twitter Updates For the beautiful footage of Saroo’s reunion with his biological mother (the actual Saroo, not Dev Patel) and when he introduced his adopted and biological mothers – they don’t share a language but they held each other in a way that showed their shared love – unbelievably moving.Īs part of the 20 Books of Summer reading challenge, I’m comparing the Belfast summer and Melburnian winter.When you see a five-year-old alone on the streets of Kolkata (Calcutta) it’s terrifying (it was terrifying to read about, but my heart was in my throat watching it).All types of crying: sad crying, happy crying, frightened crying, relieved crying I’m skipping a review of A Long Way Home by Saroo Brierley and instead suggesting that if you don’t already know this incredible story, see the film asap (note that the main difference between the book and film is that the book includes detail about Saroo’s time in India once he was reunited with his biological family, whereas the film ends with the reunion).
