I do not normally recommend crime novels more than 500 pages long, but I am making an exception with Vikas Swarup It's unusual, witty, quirkily, cleverly plotted, intelligent, and along the way it's an informative satire on Indian politics and values...a rollicking good read
Gleeful, sneaky fun
Fascinating, multi-voiced slice of Indian life across the castes with political corruption at its centre...a lovely, lovely book
A page-turner of a mystery
Neat, clever and loads and loads of fun
