"So Many Journeys" is a book of contemporary writings on Bharatanatyam by the well-known dancer Geeta Chandran (with Rajiv Chandran).The book is a compilation of the dancer's impressions on her journey with classical dance. The articles are an insider's view of a difficult profession; some are intensely personal and biographical.The book is an offering to the contemporary dance-dialogue written by a practitioner who loves her dance and takes immense pride in the fact that she had the opportunity to learn this wonderful art form at the feet of stalwart Gurus, and who has continued to experience great joy and satisfaction in performing it and sharing it with widening audiences.Lavishly produced and illustrated this book aims to move Indian publishing on the arts to a new frontier. It received the Best Art Book Award for the year 2006 from the Federation of Indian Publishers.
