review 1: Tavleen Singh pieces together the political story of the turbulent years of her time as a journalist .... The beginning of dynastic democracy, the emergency, operation Blue-Star, Mrs Gandhi's assasination, the rise and fall of Rajiv Gandhi. Supplementing the colourful first hand accounts, conversations, sheer gossip and rumours are interesting political insights, discreet opinions, assessments of the country's social and economic problems, opportunities missed, past mistakes and important lessons . An interesting read.
review 2: I have never been an ardent fan of politics but I can safely say this book has helped me develop an interest in this area. I enjoyed reading durbar. Tavleen Singh has strong and sometimes one sided opinions but her experiences are ric... moreh offering many interesting insights of the period. the book is engaging and helped me see the political issues during indira and rajiv gandhi's time with a new lens. less
