The Great Bangalore Morph

1,800.00

The title says it all. Starting from the story of Bangalore’s founding, we journey through the city’s many avatars – from a sleepy pensioner’s paradise and garden city, to a cosmopolitan wonderland of snazzy pubs with draft beer on tap, and through the ‘IT boom’, which made Bangalore the poster child of successful globalisation. Soon Bangalore became India’s fastest growing city, expanding chaotically in all ways and directions; for better and worse. And then came the pandemic…

“This gorgeously illustrated and sensitively written book brings alive Bangalore’s past, present and possible future like no other work I have seen.”

Ramachandra Guha

“Here’s to the authors’  remarkable vision and the kaleidoscopic tale of Bangalore’s morphosis!”
