A phantasmagorical allegory for a handful of timely social and social justice problems, particularly in India, explored through the young protagonist, Haroun, and his father’s storytelling. One of the book’s unexpected treats is breakdown of the meanings and symbolism of the ample cast of characters’ names, an intriguing linguistic and semantic bridge to Indian culture. The book received a Writer’s Guild Award for Best Children’s Book that year. No wonder.

Just beautiful. We used "Tus Manos" as a reading in our wedding.

This is an excellent book that is extremely well written. I didn't think this type of book would interest me but it was educational, historical, and at times very suspenseful.

A.J. Jacobs' second book is both thought-provoking and entertaining, and entirely sincere. Everyone who reads it, regardless of religious background, will find something to laugh at and something to think about.
