thewoollygeek's review against another edition
4.0
This is the first book I have read by Monica Bhide but I can definitely say now she will be on my TBR future lists. This book was a delight, the author manages to transport you to New Delhi through her wonderful and rich descriptions. This book deals with so much love, eating disorder, poverty, religion and hate.
Eshaan, our main character opens Buddha’s Karma Kitchen to help beggars on the street learn skills to cook and be able to get themselves out of poverty, he does this from his shared pain of loss, hunger and understanding growing up with poverty. Like most things in life, Eshaans hopes and dreams do not go to plan, what follows is a lovely story that will make you fall in love with Eshaan, his altruistic hopes and dreams, you will root for him both in his business and also his love for Kitt (Intertwined in all this amazing plot is a parallel theme and story of love).
A fantastic story, one I will definitely return to in years to come.
