Ruth Prawer Jhabvala How I Became a Holy Mother (Capuchin Classics)
Capuchin Classics 2009 0955731232 / 9780955731235 Paperback Like New
"clean, tight, unmarked() Set, of course in India, these stories are concerned not so much with Europeans in India as with Indians themselves. They are about universal human passions—yet interwoven with India itself. The heat, the vastness, the loneliness of India are all reflected in the lives of the people living in a country that is not so much an additional character as, often, the most central one. As always she tells her tales with compassion, penetration, humor, and the blithe gift of narration familiar to the hundreds of thousands who have seen the she scripted for the legendary Merchant Ivory team—such as Howards End, The Remains of the Day, A Room with a View, and her own Heat and Dust—and who have delighted in her novels.

Linked by the incessant longing for inner fulfilment, grandmother, mother, son and daughter pursue their selfish quests by very different routes. Yet each is drawn, either by love or by hate, to the magnetic Leo Kellermann, former Adonis, guru, charlatan/genius and founder of the dubious Academy of Potential Development. ID: mon0000067371"
