Twilight in Delhi
by Ahmed Ali
A fascinating story of what life was like in a prosperous, middle-class family in the crowded lanes of Old Delhi in the early 20th century. There’s a lot about standing on the roofs – everyone’s got their own flock of pigeons, and people are calling to them, and the idea is to try to capture some other person’s pigeons with your own.
