The Magic of India

"India is a country that lives at two different speeds - one is modern and has the same problems as our own countries, the other is so traditional that it seems to rise from the mists of time." This text is a depiction of India which explains, through the experiences of the authors, everyday life, rural India, the various castes, muslim India, the Indian woman, Bharat, and the immense extravagance of the ceremonies. A chapter on the meeting of "yesterday and tomorrow" throws light on India's possible future developments, and completes this work about a relatively unknown world.
