“This is not a book. It is pure art. The tribal woven cloth spine, the printing, the photography, typeset, the negative asymmetric spaces, the finely drawn illustrations…”

Wendell Rodricks, Fashion Designer and Philanthropist

“Ramya Reddy’s substantial book Soul of the Nilgiris is a distinctly feminine celebration of culture, tradition, craft and community. Open the cover and it will transport you to another place that feels like another time but is still very much with us in the present. Immerse yourself in it and you will become more aware of the many wonders that await you when you rekindle a deeper connection with nature. There’s wisdom in here that will help us chart our courses to healthier more whole ways of life with ourselves, each other, and our planet.”

John Paul Caponigro, Environmental Fine Art Landscape Photographer and Visual Artist
