Professor Chandra Follows His Bliss by Rajeev Balasubramanyam

5.0

Five million stars! If I could give this book more than five stars, I would! By page 10, I was chuckling at the humor. I found myself frustrated by characters’ actions, almost like they were my own family members, and cheering when Professor Chandra had a win.

I LOVE this book and know it’s one I’ll want to reread, which I can’t say for every book I enjoy. I also know, when I go to reach for a pen to underline a passage that resonates, that I’m going to want to keep this book in a prominent place on my bookshelf.

It’s lovely to go on this spiritual and familial journey with Professor Chandra and his family members. Life is complicated and families are complicated, but this book gives so much hope that, to quote Gil Scott-Heron, “no matter how far wrong you’ve gone, you can always turn around.”

And the ending? No spoilers, but all I have to say to author Rajeev Balasubramanyam is “thank you, thank you, thank you.”
