内容説明

The essential Khushwant Singh collection In an essay in this anthology, Khushwant Singh claims that he is not a nice man to know. Whatever the truth of that assertion, there is little question about his skill as a witty, eloquent and entertaining writer. This book collects the best of over three decades of the author's prose--including his finest journalistic pieces, short stories, translations, jokes, plays as well as excerpts from his non-fiction books and novels. Taken together, the pieces in this selection (some of which have never been published before) show just why Khushwant Singh is the country's most widely read columnist and one of its most celebrated authors. 'Khushwant's greatest quality, and one which illuminates all his writings, is the ability to talk to the reader and not at him.' --Business Standard '(The book) is compelling re-reading not because it is memorable but because it is unforgettable.' --The Tribune
