New York: Viking, 1991 WYSIWYG pricing--no added shipping charge for standard shipping within USA. Quarter black cloth, black paper-covered boards, gilt titles on spine, [v], 521 pp. Some soiling to edges (mostly top edge), bottom edges of boards fading, one corner bumped.

There is the ferociously successful businessman with a shrine in his office, the old friend who has become a recluse and a saint, the Sikh farm visited hours after a massacre. Everywhere, among a multitude of discovered lives, there are mutinies--against the British, against the government, against the Brahmins. And everywhere a tradition of self-sacrifice quite alien and surprising to the West." Shipping weight 3 lbs.. First US Edition. .…
