What can you expect when Khushwant Singh - irrepressible as ever, cuttingly candid, provocatively truthful - decides to write about some of the women and men in his life? An unputdownable volume which spans his life and his long, chequered career, in which he reminisces about the people he has met, befriended and fallen out with. The list includes film makers, politicians, industrialists, lawyers, civil servants, writers as well as other relatively unknown personalities.
