Everyone knows Vilayat Khan, but no one knows Vilayat Khan. In this beautifully layered biography, Namita Devidayal presents the ustad: vivid, volatile, bitingly funny, and also the sensitive, meditative, mindful man who produced music that contained the ecstasy of 'fairies dancing, elephants walking. From Gowripur in Bangladesh to the Park Circus house, the glory of Dada Imdad, Bengal ka Jadugar Abba Enayat Khans untimely death that left him orphaned at ten, the extreme penury, and then the peaks in Bombay and elsewhere— a life full of glamour and glitches—but always the music, unharmed, protected, at the centre
Namita Devidayal was born in 1968 and graduated from Princeton University. The Music Room, her first book, was a winner of the 2008 Vodafone Crossword Popular Book Award and was named an
Outlook book of 2007. A journalist with The Times of India, Namita lives in Mumbai.
