Title:  The Wise Man Said Author: Priya Kumar Genre: Fiction, Literature Pages: 180 Publisher: Books That Inspire Rating: 4.5/5 Finally! A review that I was eager to give to my readers.  The Wise Man Said , by Priya Kumar , was one book that I had desperately wanted to read and when Priya Kumar's office asked me for a review of the same, I was thrilled, to say the least! After reading The Calling by the same author I was sure that this book, too, would help people achieve what they thought was unachievable. A lengthy bit of an introduction but well deserved nonetheless. Let's get to the review before I get carried away with my ramblings.

He goes from one place to the other, gathering knowledge and experiences, that he writes about in his diary. A wanderer, Sammy lets his intuition take lead to experience any adventure/obstacle, willing to even d...
