A master of the travel narrative weaves three intertwined novellas of Westerners transformed by their sojourns in India
This startling and satisfying book captures the tumult, ambition, hardship, and serenity that mark today's India. Paul Theroux's portraits of people and places explode stereotypes to exhilarating effect. The Elephanta Suite urges readers toward a fresh, compelling, and often inspiring notion of what India is, and what it can do to those who try to lose--or find--themselves there.
