The Age Of Kali by William Dalrymple
Indian Travels and Encounters
A collection of vivid travel reportage from the Indian subcontinent in the late 20th century, portraying a region riven by communal violence, political upheaval and social decay while capturing the lives of ordinary people caught in crises—from militant insurgencies and military rule to refugee crises and criminal underworlds. Through eyewitness scenes and interviews, the book sketches how ideological extremism, corrupt institutions and historical grievances reshape communities and daily life, yet also highlights moments of resilience, humor and human complexity amid chaos.
