The Smell of Wet Earth is an intimate, travel writing charting a week-long stay at Spice Village, Thekkady in India.
Leaving the digital age at the door of a thatched, stone-floored cottage, this narrative reminisces a silent living in a magical spice garden.
A luminous piece of travel writing for anyone who wanted a convincing invitation to forget the world.
