So Many Journeys is a book of contemporary writings on Bharatanatyam by the well-known dancer Geeta Chandran (with Rajiv Chandran).
The book is a compilation of the dancerยs impressions on her journey with classical dance. The articles are an insiderยs view of a difficult profession; some of them intensely personal and autobiographical.
The book is an offering to the contemporary dance-dialogue written by a practitioner who loves her dance and takes immense pride in the fact that she had the opportunity to learn this wonderful art form at the feet of stalwart gurus, and who has continued to experience great joy and satisfaction in performing it and sharing it with widening audiences.
Lavishly produced and illustrated, this book aims at moving Indian publishing on the arts to a new frontier.
It received the Best Art Book Award for the year 2006 from the Federation of Indian Publishers.
