Holy Cow

An Indian Adventure
Author: Sarah MacDonald
Subject: biography
My rating: 4.5*



About the book
A funny and smart story written by an Australian journalist about her tribulations in India. For those who think of India as a place of spiritual enlightenment, with quiet and serene surroundings this book is a must read. It's revealing, smart and funny, and reads like fiction. You will gain knowledge about religion and the Indian society, and see through the sometimes dirty glass to what is actually real. I enjoyed this book!

From the book
'India is beyond statement, for anything you say the opposite is also true. It's rich and poor, ugly and beautiful, and smart but stupid. It's all the extremes" (107)
