08 Sep / Q&A by Vikas Swarup [in AsianWeek]
In spite of its devastating moments, this is one fabulous novel about a billion-rupee quiz show winner, a lá Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?, who is unjustly arrested for cheating. Rescued from being further tortured, the uneducated orphan spends the night with an avenging angel attorney as he recounts his life experiences that allowed him to know all the answers.
