I write a fortnightly "Letter from India" column for the International Herald Tribune, and occasionally for The New York Times

I'm working on a non-fiction book about India, to be published by Riverhead in 2010

I've written for The Atlantic, The Economist, Granta, The New York Times Book Review, The New Yorker, and several other publications

Two articles on the five-year anniversary of the tsunami (1, 2), from The International Herald Tribune and The New York Times. These follow-up from my two original reports on the tsunami, published in The New Yorker (1, 2).

See also a related article from Granta on coastal erosion in South India.

Two articles on the social impact of rapid development, from The International Herald Tribune and The New York Times (1, 2).

I've also written on development for The Atlantic (an essay review on Amartya Sen ) and The Economist (on the digital divide).

I've written several literary essays and reviews over the years. See this one on VS Naipaul, from Transition, and this one on Indian literature, from The New Statesman.
