Here are some recommendations, based on secondary sources. I have not read any of them but trust the sources that reviewed/recommended them to pick them when I am in India next week. * The Music Room by Namita Devidayal * Gorilla by Sobasakthi (I have read this one and liked it) * Patna Roughcut by Siddharth Choudhary * No God in Sight by Altaf Tyrewala * Between the Assasinations by Aravind Adiga * Fuel by Hamid Dalwai * Hitchhiker by Vinod Goerge Joseph If you have time, read book reviews on The Middle Stage[1] and Jabberwock[2]. Both of them have reviewed some Indian books in the past, which may not have made it to Amazon. [1] http://middlestage.blogspot.com [2] http://jaiarjun.blogspot.com
