The Competent Authority : Shovon Chowdhury


Am on a roll today, had this review in draft for an year now. So let me cross it out of the list.

Found this gem of a book at the airport on one of my visits to India. Something about the cover and the blurb said that this would be a good book. Well in this case i was lucky to have judged the book by its cover.

The Competent Authority is a laugh riot. It is set in some time in the not so distant future where large parts of  the country have been taken over by China and the country is run by a faceless bureaucrat called the The Competent Authority.

Don't remember much now but only that the book was very funny. Rating 3.5 /5.
