Cash and Curry

An Unlikely Pilgrimage



2017 WINNER OF THE BODLEY HEAD | FINANCIAL TIMES ESSAY PRIZE

In this quest across India during the recent cash crisis, Chris Newens follows in the footsteps of TV chef Rick Stein in search of divine truth and the perfect curry. Steeped in the smells and colours of south India, Cash and Curry is a brilliantly funny and intelligent journey of discovery that muses on the love of food, various incarnations of godliness, the power of belief and the true meaning of value.
