"Written with elegance and sensitivity, RIOT is a remarkable tale about violence and hope in a land that has known both; it confirms Shashi Tharoor as a major voice in contemporary literature."
- Elie Wiesel, Nobel Laureate

 
"In our own country of many caravans, Riot is not just a splendidly readable novel of memorable characters and moral complexity. It helps us to see, honestly and compassionately, the delicate treacheries we can be most blind to in ourselves, especially in times of triumph or grievous pain."
- Lorraine Adams, in the Washington Post

 
"Tharoor, perhaps one of the finest novelists writing in English today, delivers a tale of ignited passions wrapped in a heartfelt treatise on the complexities of Indian society."
- Deloris Tarzan Ament, in the Seattle Times

 
"Recommended for both public and academic libraries."
- Library Journal
