In her newest book, Not Becoming My Mother (and Other Things She Taught Me Along the Way), Reichl examines her mom's old letters and explores her parent's ideas about young women (pretty is more important than smart) as well as her mother's bipolar disorder.

And while those on the outside have been transfixed by its galloping economic growth for some time, the emerging global giant is full of paradoxes. It is the world's go-to destination for talent, yet has the world's highest high school dropout rate. Despite its robust economic growth, India is wracked by seemingly irreversible poverty. Capitalism is still, for all intents and purposes, a nasty word, corruption is ubiquitous and the relatively young democracy...
