Delirious Delhi

inside India's incredible capital

by

"When the Big Apple no longer felt big enough, Dave Prager and his wife, Jenny, moved to a city of sixteen million people-with seemingly twice as many honking horns. This book, is Dave's top-to-bottom account of a megacity he describes as simultaneously ecstatic, hallucinatory, feverish, and hugely energizing. Weaving together useful observations and hilarious anecdotes, he covers what you need to know to enjoy the city and discover its splendors: its sprawling layout,some favorite sites, the food, the markets, and the challenges of living in or visiting a city that presents every human extreme at once. Delirious Delhi is at once tribute to a great world city and an invitation to explore"--Page 4 of cover.
