Six Suspects: A Novel has been added to your Cart. Mr. Vikas Swarup does not have this kind of humility. Instead, he has a wide range of characters, from the American to the tribal indian, portrayed in this novel, all in an equally not believable fashion. It is the work of an amateur novelist, who has been pushed to fame by the very successful movie adaptation of his first novel, Q&A. This is also an interesting point, since Q&A, although it has a great pitch, is not a very good novel ; only the film actually was. In short, Mr. Swarup has an esteem of his work much higher than his understanding of the profession of writer.
