Reseña del editor
There can be few more discussed countries in the world today than India. In recent years it has shed its popular image as a poor, tradition-bound backwater to stand poised on the threshold of super-power status, rivalled only by China as the greatest winner in the post-Cold War world order.
In Vishnu’s Crowded Temple Maria Misra has written the essential history to allow us to understand the fascinating historical trajectory of this emerging third-world super-state. The book dramatizes the dynamic counterpoint between the resilient Indian people and a succession of ambitious, if flawed visions of the nation.
This is an extraordinary story and Misra tells it charismatically with wit and style. Vishnu’s Crowded Temple is the history of a wholly contemporary state, an India shaped both by western and eastern ideas, but the slave of neither – the harbinger of a resolutely post-modern democracy, at once wholly new and yet steeped in its past.
