Beautiful Thing: Inside the Secret World of Bombay's Dance Bars by Sonia Faleiro
4.0
Beautiful Thing is a non-fiction work about Leela a bar dancer in Bombay. Dance Bars are bars or restaurants where young women dance on stage to Bollywood music. The women get by on tips and gifts from their "kustomers".
I never knew much about the bar dancing culture in India so I found this book fascinating. It was one of those books that completely opened my eyes to someone with a completely different life than my own.
I won this book through a goodreads firstreads giveaway.
