Why Do We Like Reading About India So Much?

Performance:
4.00PM Sunday, 20th September 2015

Is it colonial nostalgia that draws us back to the sub-continent, conscience about its extremes of wealth and poverty, or recognition of its uniquely rich and diverse culture?

Lee Langley* was born in India and has written several novels set there, Neel Mukherjee is one of the most outstanding young Indian authors whose The Lives of Others was shortlisted last year for the Man Booker Prize and Alastair Niven has written three books about Indian fiction.

Join them as they get together to discuss the enduring appeal of the country.
