Temptations of the West by Pankaj Mishra
Old, new; rich, poor; rural, urban; Hindu, Muslim - India is a country of contrasts. This book explores this diversity, offering an exploration of the histories, politics, religions and philosophies of India - and her neighbours. It aims to paint a clear and often alarming picture of disarray and disorder.
Pankaj Mishra's books include The Romantics, which won the LA Times' Art Seidenbaum Award for fiction, Age of Anger and From the Ruins of Empire. He contributes political and literary essays to the Guardian, the London Review of Books, the New York Review of Books and the New Yorker. A fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, he lives in London.
