About the Book

People Who Meet People is an amazing anthology
of uncommon interviews of the finest spread and
variety. Each of these interviews is a specimen of
meaningful dialogue that makes for compulsive
reading.
Here the interviewer expertly induces his subjects,
both national and international, to launch into
freewheeling conversation with unusual depth and
perception. His empathetic and probing questions
have sparked these occupants of the artistic
firmament to intimately and animatedly talking
about that part of their lives which usually remains
under the lid.
All of these tête-à-têtes carry befitting codas,
most of which are interesting observations on the
interviews made by discerning readers. None of the
pieces was sent by the interviewer to his subjects
for vetting. He took it entirely upon himself to
execute this thought-provoking undertaking (fortynine
personalities from the world of writing, music,
cinema, dance and painting are showcased here)—a
marvellous achievement in the canon of interview
as an art form.
Swapan Banerjee gives equal prominence in this
volume to some obscure yet highly deserving
people who have never before been brought
to the limelight. Spontaneous, no-holdsbarred
conversations with the greats and the to-be-greats
make this book an armchair favourite.
