Many thanks to the publishers, Hamish Hamilton Books for inviting The Bookbag to review this book.
I enjoyed Paul Theroux's previous offering, [[The Elephanta Suite by Paul Theroux|The Elephanta Suite]] rather more and John Pilger's [[Freedom Next Time by John Pilger|Freedom Next Time]] tells of the realities of India's economic boom, while AS Byatt's Booker-nominated [[The Children's Book By by A S Byatt|The Children's Book]], is another recent example of a novelist putting a writer at the centre of their books.
