His fall into blindness had broken open his perception so that nothing escapes
him . . . he has a clarity that is sometimes like clairvoyance Returning to
1960s' India after decades beyond its borders, Ved Mehta explores his native
country with two sets of eyes: those of the man educated in the West, and those
of the child raised under the Raj. Travelling from the Himalayas in the east to
Kerala in the west, Ved Mehta's observations and insights into India and some of
its most interesting figures - including Indira Gandhi, Jaya Prakash Narayan and
Satyajit Ray - create one of the twentieth century's most thought-provoking
travel memoirs.
