Table Mountain

The Interest reveals the lengths to which British leaders went to defend the indefensible in the name of profit

English, August An Indian Story 9786987832803 Table MountainAgastya Sen, known to friends by the English name August, is a child of the Indian elite. His friends go to Yale and Harvard. August himself has just landed a prize government job, which takes him to Madna a town with the highest temperatures in India deep in the sticks. There he finds himself surrounded by incompetents and cranks, time wasters, bureaucrats, and crazies. What to do? Get stoned, shirk work, collapse in the heat, stare at the ceiling.
