	Book Title: The Great Indian Novel
	Desc: The young Indian writer Shashi Tharoor's ambitious first novel is at once a parody of the Mahabharata and an act of homage that retells it in terms of 20th century Indian history.... Mr Tharoor's attitude is best captured by the self-deprecating playfulness of his title.... He's undertaken as well a parody of British writing about India.... Nearly all of this is ingenious and some of it is inspired.
