Description
Delhi Noir's 15 original stories are written by the best Indian writers alive today - the ones readers might not have yet heard of but should have. Features both veteran authors who have appeared on the Booker Prize shortlist and new talent. Delhi Noir is a world of sex in parks, male prostitution and vigilante rickshaw drivers. It is one plagued by religious riots, soulless corporate dons and murderous servants. This is India uncut.
