Reading 'Nine Lives' by William Dalrymple. Its a nice book about nine people from different spectrum of life in India.
Interesting revelations about dead-body skull eaters in West Bengal. And their supposedly powers. Another interesting character, a MBA working in FMCG in Mumbai, shuns everything and become sanyasi. He takes this decision in a fraction of second.
Dalrymple has good repository of knowledge about India.
Another book I had read which was as interesting as this is 'Holy Cow' by Sarah McDonald.
