Sudha Murty—through the exceptional work of the Infosys Foundation as well as through her own youth, family life and travels—encounters many such stories . . . and she tells them here in her characteristically clear-eyed, warm-hearted way. She talks candidly about the meaningful impact of her work in the devadasi community, her trials and tribulations as the only female student in her engineering college and the unexpected and inspiring consequences of her father's kindness. From the quiet joy of discovering the reach of Indian cinema and the origins of Indian vegetables to the shallowness of judging others based on appearances, these are everyday struggles and victories, large and small. Unmasking both the beauty and ugliness of human nature, each of the real-life stories in this collection is reflective of a life lived with grace. Review: Snazzy reader - I enjoyed reading the book. I like authors thoughts and her writing process. Every story has a hidden moral that you realize n get a connected. But I was a little disappointed as the name of the book n story of devadasi was opener to the book. I was expecting that stories are all based on different devadasi’s there personal life and how they felt etc but what I was expected wasn’t there the subject jumped from place to place. Though I jumped but I did enjoyed the read Review: An inspiring, exemplary works of a Genius and Committed Philanthropist - When I started reading this gem of a book, I couldn't stop, and shared many a paragraph of the writer's wisdom and lessons with my husband. It is such mind blowing and must read book by all. I recommend to those who want to achieve and lead a contented life.

It is such mind blowing and must read book by all. I recommend to those who want to achieve and lead a contented life. Reviewed by Umaiyal Nadarajah ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Admirable stories from a woman struggling to make things better for other women *by L***S on September 30, 2017* Murty is a bit self-conscious as a writer and just a smidge judgmental, but her passion for helping people (particularly women) on the underside of society is so undeniable that you can't help but forgive her... like an admired Auntie, or beloved friend. Her stories of her work to support massively underserved populations of economically and socially disadvantaged women are eye-opening. If you are a feminist, or just feel strongly about fairness and equity across all human beings, you will thrill a bit to her stories and her struggles. ## Frequently Bought Together - Three Thousand Stitches - Here, There and Everywhere [May 01, 2018] Murty, Sudha - Grandma's Bag Of Stories --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/45333775-three-thousand-stitches](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/45333775-three-thousand-stitches) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-20*
