Abstract

Sam Miller is a highly renowned writer and journalist. Despite being born and raised in London, he has resided in India for the past 25 years. Therefore, establishing an emotional bond and sense of affiliation with India. Since the early 90s, he has been affiliated with the BBC as a television and radio correspondent in New Delhi. In addition, he served as a correspondent for the BBC in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Bangladesh, the Balkans, and Northern Ireland. Published in 2009 by Penguin India, his first book 'Delhi: Adventures in a Megacity' earned him a reputation and popularity among renowned writers. Subsequently, he has authored other literary works, such as A Strange Kind Of Paradise: India Through Foreign Eyes (2014), and Fathers (2017), and has also undertaken the translation of The Marvellous (but Authentic) Adventures of Captain Corcoran by Alfred Assollant (2017). Additionally, he has authored Blue Guide India, a comprehensive guidebook that provides an intricate account of India's art, architecture, and history for tourists. His works depict India as a fusion of historical and contemporary elements, combining Eastern and Western influences, as well as modern and traditional aspects. Miller's writings expose the diverse perspectives, various concepts, and biases that foreign tourists hold about India. He also endeavours to dispel any confusion or misunderstandings that readers may have by sharing his own comprehensive understanding and personal experiences of India.
