Rage seeps through the pages, and there is little hope. ‘Part memoir, part reportage and part polemic, Joseph’s book is a cautionary tale of a nation losing its way because of an unchecked breakdown of some of its critical institutions.
It contains damning evidence against some of the largest businesses in India and highly-established politicians.’ – Iftikhar Gillani, DNA Exposing how our democratic system has been hijacked long ago, the book is explosive and frightening.
‘Award-winning investigative journalist Josy Joseph’s book, A Feast of Vultures, brings to the surface a narrative that calls for the cry of change in India.

Too sweeping, too condemnatory, and, perhaps, too true. It confirms what we already suspect and shocks us further by unravelling the workings of the Indian system.’ – Crossword Book Award Jury, 2017, for the best book in the non-fiction category ‘This is a book about the truth about our nation.
