Zusammenfassung:	There are a thousand paths to Indian literature, some of them new and gleaming. India's diaspora has produced much of the best of current English fiction. Salman Rushdie is a hero of our time; Arundhati Roy writes with nectars and rain; Vikram Seth runs through genres like a fox through hedgerows. Jhumpa Lahiri won the 2000 Pulitzer Prize for Interpreter of Maladies. The 2008 Booker Prize went to Aravid Ariga's The White Tiger.
