A scarce India travel memoir with a Buddhist twist. This is a used travel book in good, read condition: has been read several times; wear and creasing to cover, spine and corners; strong binding; pages are clean and tanning with age; a few age spots. See photos for cover blurb and sample page(s). The book in the photos is the actual book you will receive - we never use stock pictures - enjoy!
Publisher's blurb: A Journey with Elsa Cloud starts when Leila, the engaging narrator, receives a call from an estranged daughter who, while living in the East, has become a student of Buddhism. Leila flies to India, and together mother and daughter travel through the subcontinent on an interior and exsterior journey toward understanding culminating in a visit with the Dalai Lama. This moving mother and daughter story is enlivened by richly textured descriptions and lyrical prose. 'The best travel book I've ever read.' -Norman Mailer. |
