* * * In Ganges (ALJA Ediciones, 2020), Ramiro Rodr guez opens the door to a universe different from our daily steps in the western world. The worship of mother Ganga, walking down the ghats of Benares, visualizing the dance of Shiva Natarash, being a participant in the sacred ritual of the Ganga Aarti, touching the disembodied skin of the Makara -ridden by the goddess Ganga, are some of the glimpses in this impressive landscape so beautiful for being different.
