This book is a selection from 'Gossip: Sweet and Sour' and 'Malice', in which Khushwant Singh, one of India's most prolific and popular authors, gives you 'the low-down' on people he has known and places he has visited. In these pages, you will be introduced to people like Mountbatten, Faiz, Shraddha Mata, P.C. Lal, Phoolan Devi and many others and you will travel to places as well known as Pakistan and Korea and as remote as Papua New Guinea. Bangladeshi readers will find the chapter on Bangladesh particularly interesting.
