I realised that I wrote a brief note about starting Sarah Macdonald's "Holy Cow" which is extremely good and I did not complete the comentary.
These days many of the books you read are formula - that involve many acts of aggression and unlikely sex, and in fact if you are to look at travel books, you would say they tend to start really well but always go on a bit long - they tend to be hard to finish.
Sarah got me facinated by India, her trip through religions, culture and mass poverty brought to light another world steeped in humour, history and the strength of the family unit.
loved it - all the way to the end..
