Riassunto

`The perfect travel book' New Statesman

Hitch-hiking, walking, slogging through rivers and across leech-ridden hills, Vikram Seth travelled through Sinkiang and Tibet to Nepal: from Heaven Lake to the Himalayas. By breaking away from the reliable routes of organised travel, he transformed his journey into an unusual and intriguing exploration of one of the world's least known areas.

'Vikram Seth is already the best writer of his generation' Daniel Johnson, The Tmes
