I really liked the way this was done, and would have put it down had it been mishandled to beat the reader over the head. As it were, I've found myself looking into the facts of the Bhopal tragedy for some awareness. I remember when it happened, but didn't realize that the legal wranglings are ongoing. The photos of the site make desperately clear how skimpy the operation was for such dangerous materials in such dense population. Sadly, I'm surprised that it wasn't a modern, safe plant.
I also really enjoyed that almost hallucinogenic section near the end. Structured differently enough it's to give his raw emotions a unique outlet, after his brush with easing them by violence. Remember Fatlu and the ear?
