An account of Huxley's travels in the Far East during the 1920s. Open-minded, keen-sighted, sometimes iconoclastic, always provocative, Huxley's views on British imperial power, Gandhi, the social life of Delhi, Indian art and Malaysian cuisine are entertaining.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
Aldous Huxley was born in 1894 near Godalming, Surrey. He began writing poetry and short stories in his early twenties, but it was his first novel, ‘Crome Yellow’ (1921), which established his literary reputation. This was swiftly followed by ‘Antic Hay (1923), ‘Those Barren Leaves’ (1925) and ‘Point Counter Point ‘(1928) – bright, brilliant satires in which Huxley wittily passed judgement on the shortcomings of contemporary society.
