"This is a
thought - provoking novel, that leaves you hopeful and wanting to
follow your own African Dancer. If this was Nair's objective, and
I believe it was, then this novel has been a success" www.whatamigoingtoread.com
"This is
one of the most strange, yet original books I have read in a long, long
time.....a work suffused with a peculiar loveliness, born of the author's
original imagination and rough, startling magic of her language, which
is the vehicle for that imagination. " www.rediff.com
"This is
a book that makes you want to follow your dreams, yet in the next chapter
you realise why you haven't. Preethi Nair combines elements of the surreal
and who the prosaic as she details the intricate family dynamics and
stomach - wrenching losses experienced by those who leap into a new
world. Her idea of a gypsy masala - toss your dreams into the pan and
savour the result is a fatalistic yet exhilarating view which leaves
a spicy, yet sweet aftertaste." www.amazon.co.uk
"A gem
of a book which you will read in one sitting" Books etc.
"A book
that wakes the child in us all - spiritually complex yet so simplistically
written" Borders
"Gypsy
Masala is a literary gem which transports the reader along an uncharted
but exciting tide of repressed emotions, unfulfilled dreams and a poignant
but engaging storyline." New Impact
"Gypsy
Masala, a captivating first novel by Preethi Nair, is about having dreams,
and about the cost in wasted and unhappy lives of not pursuing them."
