PERPETUAL CITY: A SHORT BIOGRAPHY OF DELHI by Malvika Singh [Hardcover]

The book by Malvika Singh is a rich, multi-faceted tribute to Delhi, blending history, personal memoir, and a powerful critique of the city’s neglect. Through vivid accounts of Delhi’s evolution from its early origins to its status as the vibrant capital of modern India, Singh examines how this city became home to millions and the seat of successive empires. The narrative weaves in the lives of notable dynasties, iconic structures, cultural heritage, and the complex socio-political forces shaping Delhi today. Singh not only celebrates Delhi's unique spirit but also makes an urgent appeal for its preservation.
