My Friend Sancho
My first book, My Friend Sancho, was published in May 2009, and went on to become the biggest selling debut novel released that year in India. It is a contemporary love story set in Mumbai, and had earlier been longlisted for the Man Asian Literary Prize 2008. To learn more about the book, click here.

Evidence From Kindergarten
As I’ve mentioned before, I thoroughly enjoy American politics. Consider the following line, from an Economist report:

The next year is going to be immensely entertaining. Move over Paris Hilton, here comes Hillary Clinton. And suchlike. They’re all such fun.
Update: Heh.
