Media Reviews

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 -- Marcel Berlins * Times *
Gleeful, sneaky fun -- Janet Maslin * New York Times *
Fascinating, multi-voiced slice of Indian life across the castes with political corruption at its centre...a lovely, lovely book -- Sarah Broadhurst * Bookseller *
A page-turner of a mystery * Waterstones' Quarterly *
Neat, clever and loads and loads of fun * Daily Sport *
