This book is about Biscuit Moments. In our parlance, biscuit is often pronounced as ‘biscut’. Phonetically written as /’bis.ku:t/. The second syllable rhymes with ‘put’ instead of ‘pit’. Biscuits represent pleasantness and comfort, safety, and softness for everyone. They transcend distance, time and monetary means with their endearing soft crunch. Their mild sweetness. Their richly warm “apnapan”. Life is about Biscuit Moments. Moments which are like Biscuits: small and sweet, sometimes crisp, sometimes soft. Small musings on refrigerator magnets and pressure cooker whistles. Intimate observations on jackets-shakets, dancing and socks. Languid reflections on monsoon, birdsong and chiffon dupattas. Such Biscuit Moments sweeten our everyday. O have biscut.

Presenting an original take on women’s safety in the cities of twenty-first century India, Why Loiter? maps the exclusions and negotiations that women from different classes and communities encounter in the nation’s urban public spaces. Basing this book on more than three years of research in Mumbai, Shilpa Phadke, Sameera Khan and Shilpa Ranade argue that though women’s access to urban public space has increased, they still do not have an equal claim to public space in the city. And they raise the question: can women’s access to public space be viewed in isolation from that of other marginal groups? Going beyond the problem of the real and implied risks associated with women’s presence in public, they draw from feminist theory to argue that only by celebrating loitering—a radical act for most Indian women—can a truly equal, global city be created.
Living on the 'Adge' in Jhande Walan Thompson is a Bill-Bryson-esque tale of Sunil Gupta's twenty-three-year-long expedition Through the Looking Glass in the madcap wonderland of Indian advertising. A delightful and quirky narrative with a wonderful cast of characters and companies (a virtual who's who of advertising and marketing), inimitable descriptions and hilarious episodes, it presents a valuable and irreverent history of the growth and development of an increasingly important and yet largely unknown sector of the industry. Sunil's gift of observation and portraiture and his original use of language and metaphor are truly remarkable. Dig in and discover how Sunil likes his coffee without any sweetener. You won't find any aspartame in his writing either. And you'll find a lot to laugh about, admire and ponder over along the way.
