In India. Cronache per veri viaggiatori

For all travellers who love India. India is told, through the author’s on-the-road journey, from original and innovative angles, and off the beaten tourist track. In an extremely engaging, at times ironic and amusing tale, an unusual relationship is created during the journey between the ‘Madame’ and the Sikh driver, her faithful companion. As she grinds out kilometres on India’s dusty roads, from Delhi to Calcutta to the forests of Orissa, Milandri faces an adventurous journey studded with twists and turns. The book offers travel tips and reflections on the ‘real’ India, but also recounts the arduous and dogged search for the truth about the struggle of primitive tribes defending their human rights. Says the author: ‘A dangerous journey, where the fact that I was a woman alone was of extreme help to me: I was underestimated and thanks to that I had access to inaccessible places and confidential information’.
