Cover of Ved Mehta: Portrait of India (ePUB)

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.
