The hungry tide [electronic resource] by Amitav Ghosh.
"Off the eastern coast of India lies an extraordinary cluster of islands known as the Sundarbans. It is a raw but beautiful area-- a place of man-eating tigers, river dolphins, huge crocodiles and devastating tides that sweep across the terrain without remorse. In this exotic land, marine biologist Piya, fisherman Fokir and translator Kanai meet. As they travel deep into the remote archipelago, they experience a territory at risk not only from natural disaster, but also from human foolishness and volatile politics"--Container.
