MORE MALICIOUS GOSSIP
This selection of Khushwant Singh's prose is like the man himself: blunt, perceptive, incorrigibly provocative, and often amusing but always bubbling with life. The book includes candid portrayals of public personalities such as Zail Singh, Rajiv Gandhi, Nani Palkiwala, Rajni Patel and Nargis Dutt. There are also vivid portraits of places such as Delhi, Amritsar, Goa, Lucknow, Bhopal and Hyderabad. Then there are his musings on such issues as communalism, terrorist and bride-burning, still as valid today as when the pieces were first written.
Effortlessly written and well-researched, these pieces bring home afresh the diversity and depth of Khushwant Singh's writings.
