内容説明
This anthology of humorous prose and verse presents the lighter side of British life in India during the Raj. It comprises writings culled out of a huge variety of books, journals, and newspaper clippings. These have been thematically grouped into such chapters as: People; The Station; The Social Setting; The Climate; Servants; Sport; Epigrams; Bon-Mots, Eating and Drinking; Birds, Insects and Animals; Translations; Some Portraits; Nostalgia. The authors range from Rudyard Kipling to bored memsahibs and housewives. This anthology will delight all readers who wish to savour the zest, the elegance, the condescension, the charm, and the delightfully casual outpourings of white men and women who needed to unburden themselves of their woes and joys and observations in India.
