The Small Things oleh Daisy Mahfooz

This is a story about two brothers from India navigating their childhood and exploring the world around them. It stresses the importance of the simpler things in life — the translucent dewdrops at dawn, the green tender tendrils, the velvet red mites after the first monsoon showers, the aromatic smell of one's favorite cooking — these are the things that touch upon the human soul and define the existentialism called love.
