Book Review - Thousand Trains To Somewhere by Krishna Gady

A Thousand Trains To Somewhere by Krishna Gady

Available in Kindle edition

This book is a travelogue of a couple's visit to Japan spanning the twelve blissful days they spent there.

It starts with a not-so-pleasant flight to Japan. But things start changing right at the first glimpse of Mt.Fuji, or Fuji-san, as the Japanese refer respectfully.

The travelogue describes in detail, the couple's visit to the various locales in Japan that make it the amazing country it is. First glimpse of Fuji-san, scuba diving in the waters of Okinawa, the sublime autumn of Kyoto, the bowing deer of Nara and the charm of Tokyo - all these amazing experiences have been featured in the travelogue.

I loved the description of every place. It felt as if I was there personally. The author's unique style of staccato narration to describe emotional experiences is indeed amazing. I have always fantasized about Japan and this book brought many a fantasy to life for me. The breezy and crisp narration keeps the readers hooked on and there is never a dull moment in the travelogue.

I would recommend this light and breezy reading to all those interested in travel memories and who are curious about the enigma named the Land Of The Rising Sun.
