  • Great recommendations for this non-desi reader!

    I am a big fan of South Asian literature written in English and now more and more in translation. Since I’m not desi and I live in the US it’s hard to find recommendations for authors to try beyond just browsing goodreads, Amazon.in pages, and some international publishers sites with Indian imprints and hope for the best.

  • Review for Dilli episode

    I absolutely love all the episodes (well except the guest appearance one) and I was sceptical before listening to the Delhi books episode because this is the city I absolutely love and the city I have been reading about since a few years now and I love most of the books written on Delhi, but if my two favourite podcasters had not loved the city or the books on Delhi or had they condemned it, it would have broken my heart. But well! They didn’t and my love for this podcast continues to grow!

  • Erudite and fun

    Loved listening to these two talk about a wide range of books, they really told me what I needed to know about their recommendations to pick my next great read. Also, it’s fun listening to them banter back-and-forth. They are as witty as they are well read!
