Snap Judgement: Books.(Maximum City; The Last of the Celts; Viviant!)(Brief Article)(Book Review)
Byline: Shailaja Neelakantan, John David Sparks, Jenny Barchfield
Maximum City
by Suketu Mehta
Readers in the know have awaited this nonfiction paean to Mumbai, India's financial and film capital, since Mehta signed a two-book contract with Knopf in 1999. But they may be disappointed by his first full-length work. The winner of the Whiting Writers' Award and O. Henry Prize has written a well-researched but unsurprising account of what he considers Mumbai's eccentricities. But his self-centered, sometimes sanctimonious writing grows tiresome. Those looking for Mumbai's Dickens would do better to explore Salman Rushdie or Rohinton Mistry.
