More than ever, Indians represent the essence of living in a globalised, highly interconnected environment. kalyan has used these candid vignettes of his experiences outside India to illustrate the many complexities, delights and lessons of being an internationally minded, insatiably curious and forward thinking global Indian.

The natural matter-of-fact with which Mr. Kalyan has put forth his wide experience and learning across 15 countries in this book is really laudable. The cartoon representation and the simple anecdotic mode adopted to highlight the requirements for a successful life is endearing.

I marvel at Kalyan’s ability to capture under seven heads, a bewildering range of human experience and I might add a large span of geography. I consider it a deft use of the literary technique of ‘miniature personal essays’. These writing put him in the class of some of the best practitioners, such as Devendra Nath Sharma, of this not so common a literary from. The texts simultaneously entertain and educate.

Kalyan has managed to weave pearls of wisdom emanating out of his cultural background, moral values and upbringing, professional experience and cross-culture through wide travel into an enjoyable reading experience.
