I am absolutely bowled over by this novel ... Khanna delivers with the wisdom of a Naipaul, the dexterity of Vikram Seth and the honesty and observation of Zadie Smith.' Paul Pickering, novelistPacked with adventure and humour, endlessly entertaining, Indian Magic is a slice of 1960s life, served with a twist of lemon by our likeable hero, Ravi. London's dodgy streets are very different from Simla's peaceful hills. Fog, Teddy Boys and nuns are just some of the challenges the young man must confront - for the natives here are really rather restless!

The Mists of Simla

By: Balraj Khanna

Enthralling! Superbly executed!' Balbir Sin SambyalThe Mists of Simla is a captivating story, often achingly funny, full of narrow escapes and some tears, as one young man strides out onto the cricket field of adult life. The year is 1962, and young cricket-player Rahul Kapoor has just passed his final exam to enter college in Simla, in the beautiful foothills of the Himalayas. Built by the English as their summer playground, Simla still has its grand hotels, faded now, echoing with sounds of the foxtrot and haunted by memsahibs in ballgowns.Since Partition in 1947, Simla society has changed, and the students are building a new India. Rahul swiftly becomes a key player on the Simla College scene; as he sets off on his rites of passage, he finds the way strewn with beautiful women. What can a young man do, but to call on Lord Krishna, the Divine Lover, to help him when things get hot hot hot?

Art of Modern India

By: Balraj Khanna,Aziz Kurtha

This is an explanation of the reasons behind the current artistic renaissance in India, a country steeped in traditionalism, and ruled by a foreign power for two centuries. It demonstrates that the coming of independence created an uninhibited context for Indian creative genius to flower again. In the 1950s artists embarked on a quest for identity that was new, and yet would reflect their country's heritage. Since then, Indian artists have quietly brought about what may be described as a charmed revolution in Indian art. The results of this revolution, as yet little known in the West and seen in this text in colour reproductions, connect India's timeless tribal and folk art traditions with developments in 20th-century Western art, in ways which are as Indian in spirit as they are universal in appeal.
