With the Kama Sutra Under My Arm :
My Madcap Misadventures Across India
Patricia Bernard
Here was a disappointment. A provocative cover and title, geared toward sales (I used library check out) but not ample follow up in text.
I had to drop out after about 30 pages, and 50 more speed reading.
My own study of the kama sutra began more than 40 years ago in San Francisco, having encountered other eager students of the female persuasion (of my species) also interested in the study. I was not legally old enough to begin my studies, but mere technicalities like that would not stop enterprising youth. You might say I have some expertise on the subject.
In this book, poor travel writing is accompanied only with the kama sutra under the arm, or being toted around, with no particular use or study involved.
Anyway, that's the beauty of the library, and who knows, someone else may love this book.
