The Guide: A Novel (Penguin Classics)

the best book i had read by an indian author

The second sentence of this book reads like this: "The man stood gazing reverentially on his face." And still, this is so far one of the most thought-provoking books I've read all year.

You Must read this book before you die

Terrific book! Wonderfully depicts a man's journey from childhood to adulthood. His change from an honest hardworking man to a jealous crook to a holy man!
