This is a classic. I read it years ago and had forgotten the lush beauty of his language, the acuity of his vision and the wisdom of his conclusions. My daughter and I visited India more than 20 years ago, and it brought back the smells, the poverty and the lush beauty of the country. What I remember most is how kind Indians were to us. Incredibly giving, you never see a car or even a scooter that isn't crammed to the hilt with people. They share. Something we Americans seem to've forgotten. Anyway, it's a lovely book and, as I recall, a lovely film.
