Omg that photo!! Is it rude/ unhinged to hype my cows-eating-trash magnum opus?!! https://emergencemagazine.org/essay/holy-terroir/ I hope you enjoy the hell out of Rajasthan and buy at least some gems.

Your fan,

Lily

Really great, thanks! Loved notes on Indian-English sales prose (I was once called "your wondrous beauty" by an Indian salesman here in Canada..)

Satayam sounds interesting. Website description: "A curation house that narrates the chronicles of Indian craftsmanship through an intricate weave of modern antiquity..."
