Product Description

A book that is as eccentric and anarchic as its subjectWilliam Dalrymple In this extraordinary portrait of one of the worlds largest cities, Sam Miller sets out to discover the real Delhi, a city he describes as being Indias dream town and its purgatory. He treads the citys streets, including its less celebrated destinationsNehru Place, Pitampura and Gurgaonplaces most writers ignore. His encounters with Delhis people, from rag pickers to members of the Police Brass Band, create a richly entertaining portrait of what the city is and what it is becoming. Miller is, like so many of the people he meets, a migrant in one of the worlds fastest growing megapolises and the Delhi he depicts is one whose future concerns us all. Miller possesses an intense curiosity; he has an infallible eye for lifes diversities, for all the marvelous and sublime moments that illuminate peoples lives. This is a generous, original, humorous portrait of a great city; one which unerringly locates the humanity beneath the mundane, the unsung and the unfamiliar.
