Seller's Description:
London. 1960. Readers Union/ Macmillan. Reprinted Edition. Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket. 229 pages. hardcover. keywords: India Autobiography. FROM THE PUBLISHER-At the age of fifty-seven, Mr. Chaudhuri found himself able to take the first trip of his life outside India. He had five weeks in England, at the invitation of the British Broadcasting Corporation, a week in Rome and a week in Paris. All his life Mr. Chaudhuri had soaked himself in European art and history, so though physically a stranger to Europe he was mentally among friends. He has now recounted his impressions, telling how he found in Europe neither indigestion nor disillusion, but intense delight as he realized that what he had been absorbing from books for half a century was a living reality. Mr. Chaudhuri has an unusual awareness of the English character and the English past, as well as of the English landscape. He is as much at home with Constable's pictures as with the cathedrals, colleges and country houses; he seems to be walking into his natural milieu, though at the same time seeing it all through Asian eyes. Mr. Chaudhuri's first book, The Autobiography of an Unknown Indian, was extremely well received: 'This is an extraordinary book. It is written by a Hindu of East Bengal who has never been in Europe, yet with a command of English that is not exceeded by Mr. Nehru himself. No other Indian self-portrait can compare, for interest or challenge, with this product of a tortured and assertive spirit. '-Glasgow Herald. inventory #23356.
