A Kite Journey Through India
A Kite Journey Through India take readers on a voyage of discovery and adventure, from the Punjab in the north to Madras in the south, into the bustling hubbub of India’s colorful markets, its chaotic, energy-filled streets, and the homes and shops of talented artisan families. Along the way you will meet a rich variety of Indian personalities, from the fantastically wealthy nawab princess of old, whose kites carried packets of pure gold and silver, to the cab driver-philosopher we meet in the opening chapter and “the man who could see stars in daylight” at the book’s close.
