About the Book
20 ESSAYS ON THE VILLAGES OF INDIA
Each essay in this collection has been written in the form of a postcard sent by the author, Shivbalak Misra, who left city life and his high-profile job as a geologist to move back to his village in UP and start a school with his wife. He has seen the villages of India change in the last five decades and writes about it in a way that will give the urban reader interesting insights into cultures, societal structures, aspirations of the rural youth, challenges of the past and present, and achievements that they are largely unfamiliar with. They will see an India which is very different from the spaces they occupy and is ever changing.
