Only in India - Jas Singh - Bog

India. An exotic land of characteristics and historical tales like no other. From an exposition on chili peppers to an introduction to comedic bridesmaids rituals, from tragic examples of socio-economic prejudices to ironic demonstrations of bureaucratic powers, and from personal reflections on kite flying to factual and clinical addresses on opium, Dr. Jas Singh shows India only as a son of the country can. Only in India--Stories Untold begins with the journey of a young Indian boy learning the differences between men and women, and harboring hopes of seeing movies and experiencing grand adventures in a historical fort. As we follow Singh from his childhood to his teenage years, then his college career, bits of political and war-time lessons, explanations of cultural expectations, and glimpses of life after the independence of British rule are interwoven in this all-encompassing exposure to a country that has been tested, redefined, left behind, missed, but never forgotten.
