The product of Siegel's deep knowledge of both Indian and Western literary and philosophical traditions, this book is also an attempt to come to grips with the omnipresence of political and religious strife in contemporary India. Shockingly original, this is a captivating immersion in the wonder and terror of India, past and present.
