Humphry House
Few pages for You
 
Frustrated with the colonial policing and "spyarchy" that had taken over administration in Bengal, Humphry House wrote 'I Spy with My Little Eye' in 1937. The satirical pamphlet features a fascinating cast of local characters: from Ilsa, a blonde saxophonist at the Continental Hotel, to a shape-shifting Brahmin who morphs into a police inspector. For the first time in over 80 years, this curious work is being reprinted with a new introduction, notes, and material from the Humphry House archive.
