A “fairy-tale” told in this book concerns a prince of Kif who makes good on his threat to run over people in the way of his Rolls-Royce. The last word of this book’s title is swapped with “Furies” in the title of an oral history by Nisid Hajari. When his wife is offended by remarks about her name in this novel, its narrator pens a “paean to Dung.” The protagonist of this novel, who recalls the memory of a fisherman’s pointing finger, describes creating jars labelled with the names of this novel’s chapters in a closing passage that introduced the coinage (*) “chutnification.” This “Booker of the Bookers” winning novel’s frame story is set in the Braganza Pickle Factory owned by Mary Pereira, who switches the name-tag of this novel’s protagonist at birth with that of his large-kneed rival Shiva. For 10 points, name this novel narrated by Saleem Sinai and written by Salman Rushdie. ■END■
