India in Slow Motion
Author(s): Mark Tully
In India in Slow Motion Mark Tully undertakes a journey that has no true beginning or end, seeking to unravel the mysteries lying at the heart of the country of his birth. Exploring Hindu extremism, child labour, Sufi mysticism, the crisis in agriculture, political corruption and Kashmir, he challenges our preconceptions of India - as well as those India has about itself - to create a thoughtful, humorous and deeply profound portrait of a country at odds with itself. Like no other writer, Mark Tully brings modern India and its people vibrantly to life.
