India’s Westernized elite cut off from local traditions want to write a full stop in a land where there are no full stops. From that striking insight Mark Tully has woven a superb series of stories which explore Calcutta from the Kumbh Mela in Allahabad (probably the biggest religious festival in the world) to the televising of a Hindu epic. Throughout he combines analysis of major issues with a feel for the fine texture and human realities of Indian life. The result is a revelation.’The ten essays written with clarity warmth of feeling and critical balance and understanding provide as lively a view as one can hope for of the panorama of India. K. Natwar-Singh in the Financial Times
