The ultimate ‘How To’ book to end all ‘How To’ books

Masala Chai for the Soul is not the sattvik cousin of the hallowed ‘Chicken Soup’ and does not

contain any amino acids to nurse your soul back to health. Instead, this soul-full chai brewed by

Jairam N. Menon is an out-and-out ROFL. Infused with masala wisdom from Aristotle to Zen, and

from Shakespeare to stand-up comedians, with the occasional diversions to Bollywood and the tea

vendor down the road, this special masala chai ought to be brewed every day in millions of tea

stalls and homes in maha-Bharat.

Jairam’s cheery stimulant tells you how to:

• spot and stop a bore at fifteen paces (sometimes less, if the bore is yourself)

• manage your boss while giving the impression that he/she/it is managing you

• discover that a lazy Sunday spent in bed is the best way to save the planet

• learn that to procrastinate makes better sense than to pre-empt

• succinctly sum up your innermost feelings as ‘F***’ or ‘S***’

This beverage by a satiric wordsmith will make you realize that there is more to masala chai than

meets the eye!
