About the book
Following a spiral course through the city, he visits its less celebrated destinations: the unexpected, the ignored and the eccentric. Through his encounters with Delhi's people – from a professor of astrophysics to a crematorium attendant, from ragpickers to members of the Police Brass Band – Miller creates a richly entertaining portrait of what this megacity means to its residents. The modern Delhi he depicts, in all its humour and humanity, is one whose future concerns us all.
