The Guide - R. K. Narayan

Raju`s first stop after his release from prison is the barber`s shop. Then he decides to take refuge in an abandoned temple. Raju used to be India`s most corrupt tourist guide - but now a peasant mistakes him for a holy man. Gradually, almost grudgingly, he begins to play the part. He succeeds so well that God himself intervenes to put Raju`s new holiness to the test.
