This is most likely off most HN readers' radar screens... Shantaram: A Novel - this was a most unlikely recommendation from a most unlikely person http://www.

  Sounds interesting, think I'll get that. There are never enough non-scifi fiction recommendations on HN for my taste

  This book is actually amazing. It's fairly large in scope, and it has a ton of interesting outsider observations about Indian culture. Plus it's thoroughly enjoyable. I'm looking forward to GDR finishing the second book (you know how trilogies go)
