Pulp Fiction vs. Bollywood

"Where is your Five Easy Questions feature?" That's what everybody wants to know. 

Well, I'm hard at work on an interview with the incomparable Vikram Chandra, the man who delivered a 900-page novel that will change the way you think about India forever.

It blends pulp fiction and Bollywood movies, a combination so sweet that I wish it had its own library shelf. So bear with me, and look for the interview next week.

In the meantime, dig his recent interview with the New York Times and go visit Neil Gaiman at LitPark. If you have any questions for our soon-to-be guest, drop me a line this evening.

Check it out: 

"That book was written when [Vikram Chandra] was a graduate student and under the tutelage of two important mentors: John Barth at Johns Hopkins and Donald Barthelme at the University of Houston. To supplement his income as a teaching assistant, the nerd morphed into a geek, developing a side business as a software programmer and writer. (Technology remains an obsession.)"
