About this listen
Eighteen-year-old Ram Mohammad Thomas has been arrested after answering twelve questions correctly on a TV quiz show to win one billion rupees. The producers have accused him of cheating his way to victory. Twelve extraordinary events in street-kid Ram's life - how he was adopted as a foundling orphan by a priest; came to have three names; fooled a professional hit man; even fell in love - give him the crucial answers.
In his warm-hearted tale lies all the comedy, tragedy, joy and pathos of modern India.

Frustrating & deeply annoying as I got most of the way through reading before I realised I was reading only the 2nd half of the book.
Double check when you download that you get 2 different parts. Mine were labelled "part one" & "part two", but were both the same.
The movie was spectacular & was the reason for my choice of this book.
Got 2 part 2s

Would you consider the audio edition of Q & A (filmed as Slumdog Millionaire) to be better than the print version?
Sorry, cannot comment.Who was your favorite character and why?
This question doesn't really have relevance for this book, because it is only about one main character.What about Christopher Simpson’s performance did you like?
Great. I loved it for the unpretentiousness of the voice. Realistic to the person he was depicting. And good range of accents between characters, so we could identify who was speaking in a dialogue.Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Laugh yes, many times. Many great quotes and one liners. LikeAny additional comments?
This was the best of the audiobooks I have listened to. The author has a wonderful sense of storytelling and found a great format for telling 12 really fantastic stories, then did beautiful work weaving them together. Thank you, sir, for the enjoyment I had listening to these stories of Indian life (even if a few might be a little fabricated).Loved this story, and recommend it strongly

superb story

Be aware that it's pretty gritty (for me, anyway). Also note that the plot line is completely different than the movie. I hadn't seen the movie so that didn't bother me. I did read a synopsis of the movie plot after I finished this book and I don't think the movie sound nearly as good.
Very enjoyable
