Just did not like the tone of this book at all. I was very excited to read this but once I started I was so disappointed idk. The way the author talks about modern Delhi (as someone who lives here) was very exhausting. It's a lot of criticism and longing for the Mughal period. (I don't want to add this but it was a very ...let's say western perspective). I had to force myself to finish this bc I didn't want to leave it halfway. But yeah, just disappointed.
