"Beautifully written- complex and layered portrayal of how Gandhi's beliefs affected villages and especially women. Written in a beautiful, lyrical style!"
"I always wanted to read the works of the great Indian trio. But it is very difficult to find their works(R.K.Narayan is an exception yaar).I should say i was lucky to find this book. I have always wondered how Gandhi had become a household name among our ancestors and this book gives some insight in that direction. The story is narrated in the form of great Indian oral tradition which makes it interesting. Though not a great book by any standards, it is a decent one."
