«Alboroto en el guayabal» is the novel by Kiran Desai, published by Salamandra in paperback (256 pages, in Spanish).
Sampath Chawla fails at his studies and at work; one day he climbs a guava tree and, unintentionally, the neighbors take him for a holy man. The tree fills with pilgrims seeking advice, and also with merchants. With humor and irony, Desai portrays contemporary India and universal issues such as family, love, and human relationships.
The first edition is from 1999 and the book belongs to the Narrativa collection by Salamandra. ISBN-13: 9788478884285.
It will appeal to readers of contemporary fiction who enjoy Anglo-Indian narrative and ironic humor.
