But after a month or two, you start to gain a much better understanding of why things don't work well in many aspects of life. Not how to fix them, but a little bit more of why and how people deal: chaos and poverty as well as charity and kindness on enormous scales.<br /><br />A couple of books to add to the list:<br />1. City of Djinns: A Year in Delhi, William Dalrymple (He also wrote The Last Mughal: The Fall of a Dynasty: Delhi, 1857 and more). He is a good writer and will bring your wandering through old Delhi to life in a different way.<br /><br />2. The Great Indian Novel by Shashi Tharoor (#2 at the UN for a few years), modern twist on the Mahabharata.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07211712497283977679noreply@blogger.com
