Description

Explore the rich social history of the Indian Coffee House through Much Ado Over Coffee. This multi-sited ethnography uses oral history, fiction, and records from the Coffee Board of India to examine how these spaces transformed Indian society. By looking at Allahabad, Calcutta, and Delhi, the book tracks how the coffee house emerged as a new socio-intellectual nerve centre for the educated middle class. This study provides a critical analysis of adda, the informal meetings that defined these spaces and replaced traditional neighbourhood tea shops. It captures a unique social environment that shaped intellectual life. Readers will find a detailed look at how these institutions functioned as distinct social spaces. The book is enhanced with archival photographs, line drawings, and cartoons, offering a visual connection to the history of one of the world's first coffee house chains.
