English Summary/英文概要： CUT LIKE WOUND is a thriller steeped in the lanes and atmosphere of the city of Bangalore. This is a novel where the city is as much a character as Gowda, his assistant Sub Inspector Santhosh, his ex girlfriend Urmila, Corporator Ravi Kumar, his brother Chikka, his henchman King Kong, the eunuch Akka all of whom form part of the action. Contained within 38 days starting with the first night of the Ramadan and ending on St. Mary’s day, CUT LIKE WOUND is a mystery, a love story and the story of a child whose fractured childhood becomes the reason for the destruction of random destinies.

Awards/获奖情况：“这不仅仅是一个关于聪明警察与连环杀人犯的故事，这更是一部探索凶手内心的小说，令读者不禁产生同情怜悯。”——《今日印度》
“一旦我创造了一个人物，我就会设身处地思考，作者Nair表示，他承认在主人公Gowda的身上有着实现愿望的元素。这个人物无所不能……一部非常棒的侦探小说，您会希望作者赶紧写下一部。”——《印度斯坦时报》
“我非常喜欢这本书，一下子就被吸引了。作者Anita Nair的写作风格在某些片段有着摄影般逼真的效果，而另一方面，又剖析了人性的内心。”——Peter James
“Nair是一名女权主义者，也是知名的印度小说家，这是一部令人震惊的犯罪类处女作小说。小说剖析了人类和性别认同的复杂性，以一个出乎意料的揭露为结局。”
"This is not just a story of another smart cop on the trail of another serial killer. It is more an exploration of the mind of a killer, that tempts the reader to sympathize." --India Today
"Nair writes big, brave descriptions of one brutal murder after the next, relentlessly describing each death even as sub-inspector Santosh loses his breakfast over them. At the crux of every great mystery novel is that penny-drop moment where the revelation leaves you cold with shock. In Cut Like Wound, the penny hits you on your head like a golf ball." --Time Out
"’Once I’ve created a character, I step into their shoes’,says Nair who admits to an element of wish fulfillment with Gowda. ’Here’s a character who can do all the things I can’t. He rides a Bullet motorcycle and can get p*** drunk - all those things that one part of me won’t allow me to do.’ A confirmed detective fiction junkie, you hope the author hurries up with the next installment. It’s torture to wait two years for any man; it’s even worse if he’s as interesting as Inspector Borei Gowda." --Hindustan Times
’I loved this book and was constantly gripped. Anita Nair’s writing in some moments has photographic qualities, in others the precision of surgeon’s scalpel; and always the great inner warmth of the human heart. Truly astounding writing.’ --Peter James

’Nair is a feminist and highly regarded Indian novelist, this is... as startling a debut crime novel as you are likely to read this year... This is a troubling novel about men and sexual identity, ending with a shattering and unexpected revelation.’
