The New Yorker has a review of Vikram Chandra's new novel "Sacred
Games." The review is by Pankaj Mishra:

The novel was also reviewed a couple of weeks ago by Sven Birkerts,
though Birkerts spends most of the time talking about how he doesn't
really want to do the review:

In the end, Birkerts likes the novel.
