Sharp, dark, and deeply insightful, Between the Assassinations by Aravind Adiga is a powerful collection of interconnected stories set in the fictional Indian town of Kittur. Spanning the years between the assassinations of Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi, the book paints a vivid portrait of India during a time of political change and social tension.

Through diverse voices—priests, journalists, laborers, and opportunists—Adiga explores class divide, corruption, ambition, and survival in modern India. Each story reveals a different layer of society, exposing harsh realities with biting satire and emotional depth.

Perfect for readers who enjoy literary fiction, social commentary, and contemporary Indian writing, this book expands the themes introduced in The White Tiger. Between the Assassinations is a compelling exploration of power, inequality, and everyday life in a transforming nation.
