Porcelain Travels in India!
[image error]

The reviewer happened to find my book at a library in Kolkata (I didn't even know Porcelain Travels had made it to a library in Kolkata...); and, in addition to reviewing the book, she explains how it made her look differently at sanitation in her own country.
