Following Fish
by SAMANTH SUBRAMANIAN
In his journey around the Indian coast, Samanth Subramanian looks at the lives of fishing communities and the leaping wealth of the tide that breathes life into local sea cuisine. If you're interested in lores of the sea, this book will not leave you disappointed. Additionally, Subramanian's prose is littered with amusing characters encountered while traversing the Indian peninsula. From West Bengal's hilsa to the world's fastest fish near Goa, the travelogue brings considerable insights into what makes Indian seafood. The author also raises critical ecological questions around overfishing and degradation of water brought on by conglomerates.
