The writing is mature and written in a way that would make you know the characters slowly yet realistically. It might take time to get into the plot and know the characters better but I would say it’s worth it. I felt that the last part of this novel was more of a "misery, begets misery, begets misery, begets misery, etc." We know.

Moth by Melody Razak review – the end of innocence in India

Beech Class at Christ Church Walshaw used Moth as one of their @clpe1 Power of Reading books. They designed their own moths after listening to the description and then wrote some poetry based on what they read. Wow!Sexual assault, rape, violence, sexism, xenophobia, racism, gore, animal violence, incest, explicit sexual scenes. Concise Guide to the Moths of Great Britain... Martin Townsend and Paul Waring (Illustrated by Richard Lewington) Devastating, heartbreaking and a hard read this was. The violence between humans, especially towards the weaks, the appaling misogynistic views on women with their housewives duties, the disgusting act of child marriages that was so prominent, the unfairness of caste system, there are so many themes that were so hard to discussed yet this book brought all of this to the light. All i can say this was such a difficult to read for how graphic some of the scenes are, for how it gets me to actually look at this and see how horrible they are. I won’t say this is by far the best partition literature that I have read, however I did enjoy this unique insight which encapsulated historical events and experiences flawlessly. There were a few instances where Hindi phrases were misprinted which I am willing to overlook as it was written by someone who is uninitiated to the language and they were far and few!
