Geographical Magazine; `A distinctive voice informed by intelligence, sensitivity and a generous spirit.' Sara Wheeler, Daily Telegraph; `Tremendously funny and evocative'. Nicholas Coleridge; `Justine Hardy has produced something more than the usual besotted travelogue. . . it is full of Dickensian detail and hilarious dialogue.' Guardian; `A funny, fresh and occasionally sad take on a country that no one - not even the lapsed princes and commissioning editors - is really going to understand.' Independent.

Challenged by a Kashmiri greengrocer in South Kensington, journalist Justine Hardy went to work for The Indian Express in New Delhi. This is an idiosyncratic, funny and sad tale about writing as an outsider on the inside of a country where the newspapers are still printed on hot-metal machines and deadlines are missed because of cows at rush hour. India's clash of past and present continues to wrong-foot Justine as she tries to get her story in order.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
