East & West: Stories of India now in India, UK, and USA
This particular collection of stories is imagined – though sometimes inspired by fact. They came about because of a marriage that carried me away to far- off India, which became my spiritual home. From my own experience of living many years in India, the sublime mythology of this great and complex culture so permeates the personal that myth often becomes reality – and reality, myth.
The aim of these stories is to serve as a kind of portal into the daily lives and emotional realities that reflect the rich depth and humanity that is India.
