Praise and Reviews

The product description doesn't lie. The "Ayurvedic Healer" by Indian author Joy J. Kaimaparamban takes you for a ride into a different dimension and time. This is the fascinating life story of an Indian physician and his never-ending love for Rosalie. The main character Madhavan Namboodiri ignores all boundaries by healing the underprivileged, the outcasts, and, as a result, he clashes with the established political and social system of India during the early 1900's. Rosalie is his dedicated, Christian wife and mother of his children. Despite his devotion to his family, however, Madhavan satisfies his sexual urges by maintaining an extramarital relationship.

If you are into romance, history fiction, and if you are interested in Ayurvedic medicine, you should read this book. Ayurvedic medicine is a system of traditional medicine native to the Indian subcontinent, and it is practiced in other parts of the world as a form of alternative medicine. Adding to the experience is Joy J. Kaimaparamban's unique storytelling that draws the reader even deeper into a world of fantasy.
