Více o knize
In a memoir that Norman Mailer called the "best travel book I've ever read", Leila Hadley records a journey to India inspired both by her lifelong love of travel and by a desire to reconcile with Veronica, her estranged daughter, who was living in India and studying Buddhism. The book's title comes from Veronica's remark as a young girl that she wanted to be "the sea, the jungle, or else a cloud", thereby earning her homonymic endearment of Elsa Cloud. A Journey with Elsa Cloud describes the sensuous delights of India, explains sexual mores and myths of India, and speaks tellingly about a memorable cast of characters, including His Holiness the Dalai Lama. A Journey with Elsa Cloud is the record of a journey, a love story, and a beautiful work of art.
