The work consists of five sections, each dedicated to an aspect of Singh’s life, giving us a glimpse of his world, his memories, his thoughts, and his eccentricities. Starting with responding to some important events, debates and controversies around his life (Meri Duniya), Singh, in these five sections, takes us on a journey that involves him meeting some remarkable people with fascinating stories (‘Ye Kuch Log’), a country that is living both in its past and its present (‘Mera Desh’) and a contemplation on the true meaning of happiness, family, life and death (‘Jeene Ki Raah’), signing off with his trademark humour and a devil-may-care attitude (‘Kuch Hansi Mazaak’). Bringing together various aspects of his scandalous, entertaining and ever-intriguing life, this audiobook is the portrait of a man who has ‘Malice towards One and All’.

Khushwant Singh, (Punjabi: ਖ਼ੁਸ਼ਵੰਤ ਸਿੰਘ, Hindi: खुशवंत सिंह) born on 2 February 1915 in Hadali, Undivided India, (now a part of Pakistan), was a prominent Indian novelist and journalist. Singh's weekly column, "With Malice towards One and All", carried by several Indian newspapers, was among the most widely-read columns in the country. An important post-colonial novelist writing in English, Singh is best known for his trenchant secularism, his humor, and an abiding love of poetry. His comparisons of social and behavioral characteristics of Westerners and Indians are laced with acid wit.
