Real estate developer Dhar-men Shah wants to tear down a decrepit apartment building in Mumbai and erect luxury towers. But a teacher named Masterji refuses to move, and his formerly friendly neighbors turn on him (they want their buyouts). Adiga won the Man Booker Prize for his last novel, 2008's The White Tiger, and I found his subsequent story collection, Between the Assassinations, even more intriguing. With a reading group guide and lots of online promotion.
