About Three-Quarters Of A Footprint: Travels In South India
‘Highly diverting, very funny...the best sort of travel book.’—Eric Newby ‘I travelled with Mrs Trivedi from Madras to Bangalore, overnight on the mail train. “First class this time so that you are not overwhelmed”. It was my second night in India and I was already overwhelmed’. Joe Roberts stayed five months with the Trivedis in Bangalore. Using that as a base he travelled all over southern India. Wherever he went he met extraordinary people…Major Trivedi warned him that ‘nothing is as fixed as you think’. In Pondicherry he found Rita, a melancholy divorcee banished to an ashram. He encountered worshippers at the great temple at Madurai and on the holy island of Rameswaram. He mingled with the vociferous crowds at the snakeboat races at Arunmala and in Cochin he was offered heroin in the Jewish cemetery… Funny, empathetic, and always entertaining, Three Quarters of a Footprint has established itself as a travel classic about modern India PRAISE FOR THE BOOK ‘Joe Roberts writes a crisp, succinct style and, like the reincarnated Naipaul, lets the people he meets in India speak in their own voices, without judging their character odd or their syntax flawed.’—India Today ‘The book has quite rare authority and insight. It is also endlessly entertaining.’—Norman Lewis ‘As long as new writers like Joe Roberts are to be found, the travel book has distinctly not had its day…full of insight backed up with scholarship.’—Geoffrey Moorhouse Salient Features: • A travel classic about South India like other great travel books about India such as Eric Newby’s Slowly Down the Ganges, Mark Tully’s No Full Stops in India and The Great Railway Bazaar by Paul Theroux. • With a new preface
