Loud Library Lady review
n this charming true story about two women and the animal they share, readers are treated to an insider’s of view of India. The Milk Lady of Bangalore is also a window into our universal connection to food and its sources, the intricacies of female friendship, and our relationship to all animals.

I am moderating “Hippocratic,” the film
For anyone dealing with illness in loved ones, for anyone who wonders about the scope and limits of medicine, for anyone who is a caregiver, for anyone who has experienced or aided in pain, watch this inspiring film narrated by the inimitable David Suchet. A film on an Indian doctor, who will be present at the Bangalore International Centre on February 20th at 6 PM to discuss this film. I happen to be what they call "chair/moderator," which is basically crowd control. See you there.
New York Journal of Books review
Narayan imparts well-researched, intriguing, and sometimes humorous facts about the complex role of cows in Indian culture
Thanks for this fantastic review!
There’s plenty of heart and soul in this book as Narayan takes readers on a unique tour of her Indian neighborhood, where there’s never a dull moment.
