Age of Vice is a searing examination of wealth, corruption, privilege, poverty and politics in Delhi. Spanning multiple narrative styles and voices, this is a fast-paced thrilling book that’ll remain with you. Polemical without being overly didactic, it’s a staggering eye-opener into the real “power” of power, family and money. Be warned it is action packed with lots of graphic, unsettling content; but if you can see past that, it is a stunning read!
Graphic: Drug abuse, Murder, Sexual violence, Gun violence, and Drug use
