Description
An epic tale of nineteenth-century India - of Sanjay, a poet, and Sikander, a warrior; of hoofbeats thundering through the streets of Calcutta; of great wars and love affairs and a city gone mad with poetry. Woven into it are the adventures of a young Indian criss-crossing America in a car with his friends. ''A dazzling first novel . . . Not merely drawing on myth but making it.'' Lucy Hughes-Hallett, Sunday Times ''Marvellous and compelling.'' Charles Palliser''A brilliant novel of wondrous conjuring and stunning import.'' John Hawkes''One of the finest Indian novels of the decade.'' Shashi Tharoor
