Riassunto

Part travel book, part love story, An Indian Attachment tells of the two years Sarah spent in rural India, in love with a placid, beautiful, opium-addicted Sikh.
Living first in a remote mud-built Punjabi village, they later moved to be part of the impoverished community of a dubious holy-man, where they lived in a minute, windowless, brick hut on around fifty pence a day. No other outsider has written so convincingly about life as the vast majoirty of Indian know it.
