You know Delhi for its rich cultural tapestry, history and monuments. You love it for its food--kebabs, chole-kulche, golgappe and chaat. But do you know about the dark shadows that lurk in its all-too-familiar haunts--the arcades of Connaught Place, the gullies of Mehrauli, the lawns of Lutyens' Delhi, or the pillars and arches of the tombs in Hauz Khas? The stories in The Haunting of Delhi City are set in a Delhi we think we know well, but don't. This is a Delhi that reveals the presence of the supernatural at every corner-ghosts as real to us in stories as they are in our imagination. Exquisitely chilling, each of these tales holds a piece of the city and its people-especially the ghosts. Oh, these are just stories, you say. But are they? Come, have a read ... if you dare.
