"This splendid book uses ideas about food, fasting and famine to explore the Indian colonial sensorium in a truly original manner. It should be of great interest to historians of colonialism, of cuisine and of the affective practices through which the colony--and the post-colony--produce their effects. It is beautifully and forcefully written, thus itself a sensory bonus for the reader."--Arjun Appadurai, New York University
