Telegraph’s Fave: Vertigo vows Kolkata

This week, Vertigo makes it the list of The Top Five Books in The Telegraph (Calcutta).

And its run of rave reviews continues countrywide. As well as its on-off appearances on bestseller lists.

Interestingly, while it isn’t a nationwide bestseller like the Ramayana novels, it’s selling exceptionally well at certain bookstores in certain cities.

What does that mean? Beats me. Except…well, maybe some people have better book sense than others, hmm?

What can I say? Ravi Singh, and the rest of the team at Penguin India sure as heck knew what they were doing when they decided to reissue this 13-year old novel.

Thanks, guys.
