Thumbs down

The story is boring, I don't have the patience to complete the whole book but I must add this lady is gaining a lot of free publicity. I bet it was her intention all along to create controversy by portraying a distorted picture of Bengalis in the East end.

people should be proud that one of the nengalis got sucess from writing the book. now people know more about bengali's because of the book. thats always good for bengalis because most people think bengali peple are indians!

I totally agree... I believe its the the bengi community leaders who r in the wrong... they aint got nuttin to do so they jus feel like ranting and raving in order to get some attention...

what? i loved it man!

i LOVED brick lane!!! i thought it was great novel!! of course it didnt exactly portray the typical benagli life in the eastend but nevertheless it was a pleasurable read! i mean the concept of a BENGALI WOMAN having an affair was thrilling!!! ... oh how i enjoyed reading it! i loved the ending of the book, i think it was the best bit, it left you smiling .. with a feel good factor as opposed to the starting, which was kinda depressing!! .. monica ali did a great job .. now lets hope she can come up with a more truer account of the life of a bangladeshi living in brick lane....
