The best parts of the book are where Shekhar Gupta dwells on the changing mores and attitudes of the Indian middle class which has acquired unprecedented trappings of modernity through higher disposable incomes but where a concomitant change in socio-cultural attitudes hasn’t quite taken place. The sheer dimension of changes in the metropolitan mindscape and in the cities and towns has been well reflected in the columns. While the often violently volatile world of politics comes in for copious comment, it is the more reflective parts of the narrative which are bound to have shelf value.
