The Courtesan, the Mahatma and the Italian Brahmin: Tales from Indian History by Manu S. Pillai
5.0
• The Book talks about various tales from history, some of them were popular and some of them are those which are discussed very less or not at all. So, obviously reading about those unpopular tales was a great experience for me.
• My favorite point, this one - how the author Manu S. Pillai has added his touch of sarcasm to the essays is quite funny yet thought provoking.
• All the essays have their own essense and importance, so one can just open any essay from the book and can read it without reading any previous stories. All the short story lovers, where are y'all at?
• How the author questioned the patriarchal norms that were practiced, some are still in practice in the most engaging way keeps the reader going on.
