Writing in English, Shasi Tharoor has produced a stunning novel that is at once ambitious, daring, boldly satirical, and outrageously funny. The two structural pillars of his astonishing work are tha national epic, the Mahabharata, and the Indian struggle in this century for independence from Great Britain. "A masterpiece"--The Statesman.
