As Willy Logan found while volunteering at a school in the isolated Garo Hills of northeast India, learning to live without internet and air-conditioning was easy; it was much harder to understand why people behaved the way they did. Despite widespread westernization—hip-hop dancing at Teachers' Day, t-shirts from Arizona and Tulsa—India remained a foreign place. In Gandhi's Birthday Song, Willy Logan tells his stories from nine months teaching and traveling in India and Nepal—from getting lost in the jungle to getting diarrhea on a 15-hour bus ride through Nepal. In the course of his adventures, Logan found worlds he never knew existed, and people he would never forget.
