About this listen

"Sharp, insightful, shocking, delightful . . . In this sparkling memoir, Vinod Mehta, India’s most independent, principled—and irreverent—editor finally tells his own story. With its ringside view of some major events of our times, and masterly portraits from the worlds of politics, business, films and the media, this unputdownable book brims over with wit, wisdom, scandal and gossip."

The authors writing is personal, rich in detail, entertaining and at times illuminating. It is however ruined by terrible narration: incorrect pronunciation, no pause for punctuation and I’d hazard a guess at poor editing of the voice over such that is speeds up in places it shouldn’t. The book would be served well with a fresh narration

Interesting book, terrible narration

It was very irritating to hear the monotonous voice of the narrator. He not only made several mistakes with pronunciation but also has no expression. Very disappointing experience.
