Down to earth and funny!

If you have a rudimentary knowledge of the languages and culture of the Indian subcontinent, I would recommend a more advanced text. In closing, I would hope that the author would compose an audio guide to accompany the text, and a fascinating future text would cover Mumbai slang, which is a whole new linguistic world.
