A Peep into Delhi's Ethos is a collection of pieces by the author that have appeared in the Hindu and the Statesman over the years. The imperial capital and its myriad hues have been caught herein, not through the eyes of a scholar but of someone who fell in love with Delhi when he first set foot in it long ago. There has been a sea-change in the ambience since then. But the monuments, by and large, still exist as of old, so also the sights and sounds of the Walled City. What if gola kabab maker Kala Baba is dead and Karim Panwallah has deserted his profession? There are other who have stepped in to fill the void and qawwalis still enliven Thursday evenings at Hazart Kalimullah shrine.
