Please help me understand this word which appeared in AL Ahram Weekly this week in an article titled' slumdog bookfair'.

This may help Urban Dictionary: slumdog, but the article itself will make clear what is meant.

The meanings of headlines and titles often become clear only after the artile has been read.
