i know this is an indian novel written by an indian man, but i think it was written for western audiences. western films set in india always highlight the slums and the grit and the crime. this book did exactly that and nothing else. i'm not indian, but people who think this book is an accurate representation of india must be out of their minds (or just westerners, or both).
yeah, no. i didn't like it.
