An interview with the Huffington Post, India about my new novel: Prelude to a Riot
An excerpt published in Scroll.com:
Annie Zaidi’s new novel takes us to a south Indian town where trouble is being brewed
Scroll describes Prelude to a Riot as 'immediately affecting, often harrowing, and sometimes hopeful'.
"...a painful read, not because of the prose, which is exquisite, nor the narrative, which never flags, but because it invokes the troubling subject that is closest today to any sympathetic Indian heart"
