Slumdog Millionaire by Vikas Swarup

Slumdog Millionaire by Vikas Swarup is an intriguing take on game shows. Who has the smarts to answer all the questions to win the big one? Someone who has grown up in the streets of India has a wide variety of life experiences and seems an unlikely candidate to win a prize that nobody has ever won. Put your seat belt on for a roller-coaster ride through the events of the main character's life as his honesty is challenged by game show officials who had not really expected anyone to win.
I have now taken out the dvd and will see if the movie is as good as the book.
