The book that didnt get the Man Booker Prize 2007

This book by Indira Sinha was nominated for the Man Booker Prize 2007. It didn't win the booker but yet shouts the sufferings of one who was affected by the Bhopal Union Carbide's explosion.

The author pays tribute to a friend that suffered from an irreparable loss- mental problem

Hey,

I had been following the booker stuff pretty closely. I was even curious about this book but ended up with a copy of The Reluctant fundamentalist, which I finished as soon as I started.
I have written a short review of it in my blog

The theme sounds intriguing. I shall give this book a try!
