Notes from Another India

Rating:
Summary: Fascinating, Illuminating, Inspiring
Review: Jeremy Seabrook is a rare journalist, one that feels such absolute empathy for the subjects of his writings, but who also understands the broader context in which his characters struggle. Notes from Another India is a must read for anyone interested in changing the world, really changing the world for the better, and what people in India and the entire Third World have to face on a daily basis in that struggle. The book pulls no punches, immersing the reader in a nightmare of human misery, while all along, providing glimmers of hope in the people's movements. One of the most momentous and meaningful books of the late twentieth century.
