'A feel-good story that’s so feel-good it makes other
feel-good stories feel bad.'
*New York Times Book Review*
'A wonderful love story.'
*National Geographic’s Best Books of 2017*
'A beautiful, epic tale of love and perseverance.'
*Booklist*
‘Charming…epic…a journey repeatedly facilitated by the kindness of
strangers, but also fraught with danger and pitfalls…[a] 7,000-mile
journey across continents, lasting almost five months – all in the
name of love.’
*Daily Mail*
'Often filled with sumptuous prose.'
*Publishers Weekly*
‘[This] is one of those genuinely illuminating stories that come
along once in a while. At heart an against-all-odds love story,
this wonderful book does so much to explain why Indian society is
the way it is. The story of PK, growing up an 'untouchable' at
a time when such labels should have been abolished,
is touching, harrowing and ultimately enlightening. The
writing is humorous and tender, the cast of characters joyous, and
best of all – it's all true.’
*Vaseem Khan, author of The Baby Ganesh Detective Agency
Series*
‘A must-read because you won’t find any other love story that is so
beautiful, touching, and – above all – true’
*Grazia*
'This is a story of human connection that spans continents, class,
and race.'
*Library Journal*
