I had been that means to learn Henna For The Damaged-Hearted for fairly a while and eventually managed to get my palms on it. To start with, I actually just like the title of the e-book. I believe it’s so poetic – and in addition, aptly captures the spirit of the story in only a few phrases.

Henna For The Damaged-Hearted is narrated in first individual. It tells the story of how the creator led a seemingly full, however apparently empty, life in Australia. Confronted with some life altering modifications, Cook dinner decides to volunteer in India – the place she rediscovers life and love, and within the course of, herself.

As I began studying Cook dinner’s description of herself, I assumed, “Oh that sounds a lot like me!” As an example, she says, “Regardless of what some would name an idyllic childhood… I grew right into a shy, closed and introverted teenager… used to spending time on my own amongst nature and absorbed in books.“As she goes on to clarify her profession selections and different expectations from life, I used to be hooked.

However in fact, that’s actually the place the similarity ends, for I’m no white girl looking for the true that means of her life whereas struggling to just accept India’s idiosyncrasies. And that’s the place I’ve an issue with this e-book. Though the premise of the story – the seek for love and peace – is common, the story itself is not. I’m assuming that the target market of this e-book is predominantly foreigners. Plenty of on a regular basis, widespread issues which the typical Indian wants no introduction to, are described intimately. Even the costs of stuff is first talked about in rupees after which duly transformed to {dollars}. Therefore, at occasions, I needed to only skim over the oh-so-familiar particulars of Ganesh Chathurthi and organized marriages.

The e-book does give one an insider’s perspective of life in India – as Cook dinner ultimately settles down in Mumbai – however it’s also peppered with the standard clichés about Indians; how we do not stand in queues, how we push and shove in crowded locations, how every little thing is suffering from bureaucratic pink tape, how we make a fuss about grand weddings, how we wobble our heads and so forth. Sure, sure (and I am wobbling my head right here), we all know all that. Now can we transfer on?

However, aside from the done-to-death particulars about India, Cook dinner’s story is a outstanding one certainly. One positively has to admire the truth that she was courageous sufficient to enterprise into India at a time when she was down within the dumps in her private life. Afterall life in India is much from straightforward and wishes quite a lot of “changes”, particularly for individuals who come from orderly and follow-all-the-rules international locations. Even many Indians like me, who get used to a snug life-style, would discover India fairly demanding, no matter whether or not we love the nation and think about it our dwelling or not.

I felt sorry for Cook dinner, when she discovered herself in an Indian model squat bathroom, clueless as to methods to proceed! In her preliminary lodging, when she is stored awake by a military of mosquitoes, I used to be reminded of my latest journey to Chennai; unable to sleep due to incessantly swatting mosquitoes that no quantity of Odomos or Good Night time might drive out, I certainly discovered myself eager for the comfy consolation of my mattress in Dubai for a protracted and restful sleep!

Henna For The Damaged-Hearted, is considerably related in theme to Elizabeth Gilbert’s Eat, Pray, Love. However I loved studying Eat, Pray, Love greater than this e-book. It may very well be as a result of, Eat, Pray, Love takes us to Italy and Indonesia, aside from India, and since I’m fascinated by each these international locations, I discovered them unique sufficient.

Another excuse I believe Eat, Pray, Love, is healthier, is that though telling a private story, it one way or the other managed to take a look at the larger image within the bigger scheme of issues. However Henna For The Damaged-Hearted, is an intensely private story, which focuses nearly completely on the creator’s ups and downs. Though, the creator’s braveness in sharing her innermost fears and ideas are to be admired, why would anybody need to wade by means of practically 300 pages of a e-book detailing the nitty-gritties of a random stranger – particularly when you already know the way it all ends, because the creator is kind of widespread within the blogosphere as she runs the Diary Of A White Indian Housewife website? In that sense, I felt that one thing was lacking from Henna For The Damaged-Hearted. learn – however going past the private, would have made it an excellent one.
