Showcasing the most beloved aspects of Adiga's writing to brilliant effect: the class struggle rendered personal; the fury of the underdog and the fire of the iconoclast; and the prodigiously ambitious narrative talent that has earned Adiga acclaim around the world and comparisons to Gogol,Ellison,Kipling,and Palahniuk.
A blinding,brilliant,and brave mosaic of Indian life as it is lived in a place called Kittur, 'Between the Assassinations',with all the humour,sympathy,and unflinching candour of 'The White Tiger',enlarges our understanding of the world we live in today.
