What a great piece, Akarsh! I remember reading all about that book last year when it came out, but I never got around to reading it. Now is the time, I think! Although your essay might have covered enough ground for me that I can wait a little longer? :-)

Thanks for the kind words on my piece, I really appreciate it. And definitely following for more of the "good Indian" in Ireland--there must be so much to write about there! I mean...

Can I ask how you saw my piece? Did it pop up? Were you searching? I'm new to Medium so still sussing it out...

I'll be returning to yours as well--so helpful!
