Book Synopsis No Full Stops in India by : Mark Tully

Download or read book No Full Stops in India written by Mark Tully and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 1992-09-14 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India’s Westernized elite, cut off from local traditions, ‘want to write a full stop in a land where there are no full stops’. From that striking insight Mark Tully has woven a superb series of ‘stories’ which explore Calcutta, from the Kumbh Mela in Allahabad (probably the biggest religious festival in the world) to the televising of a Hindu epic. Throughout, he combines analysis of major issues with a feel for the fine texture and human realities of Indian life. The result is a revelation. 'The ten essays, written with clarity, warmth of feeling and critical balance and understanding, provide as lively a view as one can hope for of the panorama of India.’ K. Natwar-Singh in the Financial Times
