Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Worth all the accolades. Alternating present with past thru flashbacks, this film takes us from childhood in the 20th century slums of Bombay to the modern trappings of 21st century Mumbai. In many ways, the more things change, the more they are the same. The number of continuity questions that arise, partly as a result of the shifts from past to present, are relatively easily suspended -- we come to believe that, indeed, the protagonist's life follows its own destiny. The occasionally violent episodes are brief enough, and integral enough to the story that even my spouse -- who will walk away from film violence -- stayed with this movie to the end.
