AN INDIAN ATTACHMENT
An Indian Attachment is part travel book, part love story. Because of Sarah Lloyd's relationship with a placid, beautiful, opium-addicted Sikh, she spent two years in rural India, first in a remote mud-built Punjabi village, and then in the impoverished community of a dubious holy-man. Here she lived in a minute brick hut with living expenses of only fifty pence a day. No other outsider has been able to write so convincingly about the plight of Indian villagers.
