In the Heart of India

Publisher Akinomé
Drawing and writing come together symbiotically to recount an eye-opening six-month journey of discovery through South India.

An unparalleled journey of discovery! For 6 months, Simon backpacked his way through South India. The author reveals his talent for travel writing in this illustrated book showcases his reasons for roaming, his sense of humor, his empathy for the people he meets, and his artistic flair. With the few implements at hand -- sepia, pen, and brush -- Simon captures an India brimming with life. He paints a kind portrait without pulling any punches: a portrait that goes deeper than the side usually shown to tourists. And running through it all, the environmental concern vital to author and publisher alike.
