The Billionaire Raj

The riches of India's prominent families are magnified because they exist alongside the abject poverty of the masses. Narrator Shridhar Solanki's tenor voice casts a questioning tone on their lifestyles and a system that allows so much wealth inequality. He presents to us the author's anecdotes and analysis of India's billionaires in a storytelling style that makes us shake our heads at their excesses all the while learning about families that are not often in the international headlines. Solanki captures Crabtree's incredulity at six-story garages and police cover-ups for the wealthy. Listeners are taken by their ears into a world of glittering privilege available only to the truly elite. M.R. � AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine
