After A Guardian and a Thief
The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida by Shehan Karunatilaka
If 'A Guardian and a Thief' hooked you with its brutal takedown of corruption and nationalism in India, craving that same punchy prose exposing how ordinary lives get crushed by power? 'The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida' delivers a spectral spin on Sri Lanka's chaos, with opportunistic characters scheming through ethnic violence and bureaucratic rot, refusing easy justice just like Majumdar's unflinching realism. No heroes, only the dark humor of survival in non-Western turmoil—share if you're ready for truth that bites.
