"A very quick delightful way to catch up on 2017 events, some key ones you may have missed in the din of noisy other events. It's a compilation of his weekly limericks which used to be published in Mint. Each limerick is accompanied by an illustration. Not more than half an hour is required to breeze through. Makes Bibek Debroy the Indian King of Limericks!"

"Quite entertaining, very very hilarious, and very contemporary. Go for it, you won't regret it."
