Acerca del libro
This travel book follows Sue’s experiences and thoughts as she visits India for the first time.
In fact, this book highlights a number of firsts . . .
Her adventure starts in Delhi. It’s September and it’s hot and sticky and crowded and a marvelous adventure awaits.
The train trip to Amritsar gives her a first up-close real encounter with the poverty that everyone seems to mention when you say you're going to India. This is juxtaposed with the beauty of the Golden Temple. She is mesmorised by the Sikhs and their welcome of all races and all creeds at their magnificent temple. Hospitality is one of the core tenets of their religion. She learns about and participates in langar. It is one of the largest free kitchens to be run anywhere in the world. It is one of the most humbling of experiences.
In Patiala, she has her first stay in a former palace. In Mukundgarh, she stays in the most beautifully restored haveli. She joins the villagers at 5.45 for the singing/chanting wakeup call around Mukundgarh. She celebrates Diwali - the festival of lights. She recounts her experiences in Jodhpur, Jaipur, Pushkar, Agra and Varanasi.
Each so different, yet so indelibly and so uniquely . . . India.
