Reviews

'A Whimsical Journey Through India is a vivid feat of re-imagining a youthful rite of passage. The narrative begins with a mystical, poetic invocation; spanning the journey. The extreme ease with which the author gets on with Indians, the zest of their lives, his openess to them, transcends fellow feeling as he is admitted into the arcana of India. He gives explanations, where necessary, in footnotes to elucidate and inform the reader' - Ruth Bidgood, Poet. 'Beautifully illustrated' - Simon Calder, Travel Journalist.
