There is not such a place as these hills for the tongue of false
report to wag about. Everybody thinks everybody else’s
affairs to be more worth looking after than their own. If you
have a friend or two to lunch, tea or dinner, the whole town
is sure to know before noon next day what was on your table
and who said or ate what.
A fascinating illustrated insight into the society and
culture of the stunning hill stations of the Indian Himalayas,
the book reveals Ganesh Saili’s very personal collection
of gupp and gossip from the foothills— a peep into their
customs and behaviour.
