Well this book was okay as in an easy read, but seemed not to know where it belonged! Was it a life story, history book or cookery book! Whatever she was trying to achieve with this, it didnt work. I thought it was interesting in that I know very little about Indian history, and some interesting points were raised which may have shaped the heritage of alot of Indian people - all the ones I know have been well to do - not rich, but educated and have families with professional jobs.
The food aspect of it was a bit surplus to the book - a lot of describing things, but not being a fan of indian food, it all meant little to me!
