Summary, etc. | About the Book: Butter Chicken in Ludhiana: Travels in Small Town India A marvellous travel book, this witty and observant work describes small-town India in a never-before light, an India that is brash, kitschy, clamorous and ever-changing A contemporary classic, widely acclaimed as Pankaj Mishras best work In Butter Chicken in Ludhiana, Pankaj Mishra captures an India which has shrugged off its sleepy, socialist air, and has become instead kitschy, clamorous and ostentatious. From a convent-educated beauty pageant aspirant to small shopkeepers planning their vacation in London, Pankaj Mishra paints a vivid picture of a people rushing headlong to their tryst with modernity. An absolute classic, this is a witty and insightful account of Indias aspirational middle class.
