Ben Doherty's intimate understanding of the Naga people is evident in the flair and passion of his writing. A riveting and poignant read."" - Nim Gholkar, author ""Ben Doherty gives a fascinating insight into the many myths, stories and culture of its people and lands."" - Bev Beeson, Warcry ""With echoes of Rushdie and Garcia Marquez, Nagaland takes the reader on a lyrical exploration of person and place. This enchanting work of fiction explores a lesser known corner of India through the protagonists' gripping and wondrous journey, while revealing Doherty as a writer with serious talent."" - Nick McKenzie, The Age ""I have come across some extraordinary real life stories of inspiration, love, and tragedy with my travels in India as a journalist. But NAGALAND is exceptional. Ben's skilful storytelling engages emotionally in the life of an amazing man, his defiance for the sake of love, and his devotion to place and to culture. In my opinion, it is a must read."" - Som Patidar, journalist ""Ben Doherty has found a universal Romeo and Juliet love story in one of the remotest and least-known arts of the world, and tells it beautifully."" - Hamish McDonald, world editor, The Saturday Paper and author of Demokrasi: Democracy in Indonesia and The Polyester Prince: The Rise of Dirubhai Ambani
