This novel has multi interesting characters, exciting plot, simultaneous stories going on, a large helping of imaginative sexual situations, action, crime, and murder. It also has a great sense of adventure. But most of all what it has is the setting of India itself (people, culture, physical geography well-described and educational); and most powerfully a series of intense guru-led mystical experiences that are mind-blowing.
One of the only books I have ever read to capture the non-rational mystical environment of India and what happens when Westerners try to navigate that world. Amazing read!
Quite psychedelic and crazy!
A classic 1970' s soft porn airport novel. An American couple immerse themselves in India with varying degrees of satisfaction and danger. I read all the rude bits as a teenager, then the whole novel again as an adult and realised that the rude stuff is pretty much all it has to offer.
An interesting variation of the journey to the east, with a vicious twist at the end...
Very Entertaining. The View of Europeans on Mystical India
Riveting, Insightful, Memorable, Page-Turning Read! I Loved It!
