Excellent read, loved all of the characters, especially Mr. Ganguly

The following review is from Amazon:

I loved Jana Bib's Excellent Fortunes, by Betsy Woodman. The story held together by itself, but the details of India in the 50s made it lively and real. It was light hearted and a page turner. I've read so many sincere, dreary and depressing books lately, that Jana Bibi was a breath of fresh air. It was beautifully written, but the writing was incidental to the story. I wanted to know how each scene would resolve itself and the happy ending suited me. There are so many expressions in Hindi; Urdu etc., that the glossary was helpful, but the meaning of most terms used were explained in context. Woodman's insight into people and how they behave is sharp.
