I have no idea who Mimi Ray is but I LOVE her review of Sculpting the Elephant on Goodreads.
“How to set oneself free – sculpt the elephant!
On the surface a love story set in both Oxford & India. But a multi layered story transporting the reader with historical reference, vivid description and understanding of two cultures, bringing the two very different main characters easily & seamlessly together.
The book will resonate with many and to others it will make them want to visit both countries. Refreshingly accurate & honest, a highly recommended read for all.
There is something for everyone.”
Here are two pics from the Buddhist trail in India and two from Oxford.

I launched Sculpting the Elephant with this video . It opens with Mumbai and Oxford .
