Climbing the Mango Trees: A Memoir of a Childhood in India by Madhur Jaffrey

4.0

I got this as a gift and turned my nose up at it, until one day had absolutely nothing else... So it was a desperation read for me. Within a few pages I realized what a fool I had been! It's a marvelous book with family lore, regional history and women's history all wrapped up in a tasty feast.
