In this eclectic collection, journalist and writer Stanley Carvalho threads together seventy 'middles' and lighter vein pieces published in various newspapers over the decades. These, mostly personal yarns, written with an observant eye and tongue-firmly-in- cheek, provide a glimpse into life around us. The humour is subtle and down-to-earth, at times puckish and self-deprecating.
The pieces are witty, inspirational, entertaining and informative drawn from his personal and widely travelled experiences in India and abroad.
