Salman Rushdie, Barack Obama, Arundhati Roy, Ralph Ellison, Richard Wright, and James Baldwin (and now, Obama and Aravind Adiga) are among those who star in this discussion of international racial politics and the Commandments that non-white people must live by to get along and be successful. Satirical, witty, and provocative, this book probes the Secret Rules that nonwhite persons must obey.This latest edition (April 2012) has just 14 commandments, and includes the passionate essay, "The White Tiger, Barack Obama, and The Revised Kama Sutra."
"Crasta succeeds in ways not unlike Sasha Baron Cohen's Borat character or Chris Rock race routines succeed, i.e., brilliantly."--Frank Feldman.
"Boldly goes where no Indian writer has gone before."--The Asian Age
