LUCKNOW: FIRE OF GRACE is the first, full-length, historical and contemparary narravtive, covering a time span of more than 250 years, from 1722 till the present, of the Indian subcontinent’s most fascinating city culture. The book gives a mnemonic shock as it redefines the Indo-Persia, Lucknowi way of beauty, politics, cuisine, fashion, architecture, money making, sensation, ‘ada’, ‘zaban’, honour and culture as authentic Indianess - in opposition to Hindutva, Jinnah’s two nation theory, and Nehruvian ‘pseudo’-anglicised secularism.
