Aldous Huxley

Rare Treasure Editions

Bu e-kitob haqida

First published in 1926, the author recounts his experiences in the mid-1920s traveling through several countries (India, Burma, Malaya, Japan and America), and offers his observations on their people, cultures, and customs. Open-minded, keen-sighted, sometimes iconoclastic, always provocative, Huxley's views on British imperial power, Gandhi, the social life of Delhi, Indian art, Malaysian cuisine and so much more are entertaining.
