It is the story of the search for his ancestors, missionaries and traders, who settled in the region generations ago and of their Balm--a wonder cure for all sorts of ailments and afflictions. It is also a fascinating and enlightening journey through India today. Wading through the country's contradictions and irritations, its ugliness and its beauty, Hyland encounters both the exotic and the commonplace. He meets snake charmers and sadhus, bogi men and horn dancers, witnesses ancient rituals and observes the most simple aspects of daily life.\u003ci\u003e Indian Balm\u003c\/i\u003e is an extraordinary and, above all, unique journey--vivid, intimate and revealing--travel writing at its colorful best.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Tauris Parke Paperbacks","offers":[{"title":"Indian Balm | Paul Hyland | Paperback | 9781845110857 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks G 1767872","offer_id":49517512687768,"sku":"1767872","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/81Y_K2GoDAL.jpg?v=1784614483","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/indian-balm","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
