Summary of River of Gods
As Mother India approaches her centenary, nine people are going about their businessÃ?Â?a gangster, a cop, his wife, a politician, a stand-up comic, a set designer, a journalist, a scientist, and a dropout. And so is AjÃ?Â?the waif, the mind reader, the prophetÃ?Â?when she one day finds a man who wants to stay hidden.In the next few weeks, they will all be swept together to decide the fate of the nation.
River of Gods teems with the life of a country choked with peoples and culturesÃ?Â?one and a half billion people, twelve semi-independent nations, nine million gods. Ian McDonald has written the great Indian novel of the new millennium, in which a war is fought, a love betrayed, a message from a different world decoded, as the great river Ganges flows on.
