I bought this book in the month of July, which was the onset of torrential rain in several parts of our country. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this and got the feel of it in my balcony admiring the gr8 Indian monsoon. Try to get this book as soon as possible if youre a lover of monsoon, nature, travel. Much Recommended

I have no words to describe about this book. Yes! I can express it if you also with a warm sip of coffee, enjoy the rain and reading every lines of it.
This is a masterpiece work from Alexander Frater. Its really thrilling when reading those lines described here.
I loved reading while travelling through monsoon.
I highly recommend this book, even if one feels boring during first few pages (coz, that infactuation had also haunted me..!).

The book describes the writers two separate (or is it three?) journeys through India, following the onset of monsoon, terminating at Cherapunji. Although not in the class of Orwell or Rushdie, using a bit of imagination, a reader can actually travel with the writer across rain soaked landscapes, filling the lung with the earthy fragrance of soil after a downpour.

One of my favourite books; an absolute must read! Alexander Frater's 'Chasing The. Monsoon' is for those who live the monsoon. Follow the author as he traverses through India chasing what the Indian monsoon...

a very interesting read. The author follows the monsoon as it spreads across India. He focuses on how the monsoon changes the color, mood, of the land as it arrives. He also does touch upon the India bureaucracy he needs to tackle to visit Cherranpnji.
