A master of the travel narrative weaves three intertwined novellas of Westerners transformed by their sojourns in India. This startling, far-reaching book captures the tumult, ambition, hardship, and serenity that mark today's India. Theroux's Westerners risk venturing far beyond the subcontinent's well-worn paths to discover woe or truth or peace. A middle-aged couple on vacation veers heedlessly from idyll to chaos. A buttoned-up Boston lawyer finds succor in Mumbai's reeking slums. And a young woman befriends an elephant in Bangalore. We also meet Indian characters as singular as they are reflective of the country's subtle ironies: an executive who yearns to become a holy beggar, an earnest young striver whose personality is rewired by acquiring an American accent, a miracle-working guru, and others. As ever, Theroux's portraits of people and places explode stereotypes to exhilarating effect. The Elephanta Suite urges us toward a fresh, compelling, and often inspiring notion of what India is, and what it can do to those who try to lose--or find--themselves there.Binding Type: Paperback

Excellent pillows!
Size: Queen, Number of Items: 2
This pack came with 2 pillows, one firm and one that was flatter and squishy. I absolutely love the flatter one! Most comfortable pillow I've ever used! The firm one was a bit too much for me, but my husband loves it.

It’s alright.
Size: Queen, Number of Items: 2
Not bad pillows. They are comfortable but mine came with an odd odor, kind of mildewy smell to it. Had to spray it down to tolerate sleeping on it.

Nice pillows
Size: Queen, Number of Items: 2
Have had these a few months and so far really like them!
They don’t really feel very cooling, but I also run VERY HOT so it could just be me. The foam holds up well and hasn’t flattened like others I’ve tried.
They come very compacted- I was shocked how much they expanded!

It works! Quality pillow.
Size: Standard (1 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
This does actually provide a cooling effect, and it's very comfortable! The accompanying literature is helpful too. I believe this to be a quality pillow for the price.
