Friends, do suggest your favorite Indian authored books for our April read. Kindly note that authors and their friends can't suggest their own books. The first 4 suggestions will be put for polls (as usual)

I can't! I can't find it in Italian. If coolie means "untouchable" then there is an Italian edition but it is difficult to find available.
I have the same problem with "I Shall Not Hear The Nightingale". So, unfortunately, I am limited with the vote :(

closing the thread here and putting up the polls. Now Itoo am in a dilemma, I had consistently voted for GST, now I may change my vote to Swami as I am in the habit of reading this book now and then, and haven't read it for the past couple of years or so :D
