A highly entertaining and moving journal chronicling J. R.
Ackerley's time in India In the 1920s, the young J. R. Ackerley
spent several months in India as the Private Secretary to the
Maharajah of Chhokrapur. Knowing almost nothing of India, he
discovers Hindu culture, festivals and language, and reveals the
fascinating attitudes of the Palace staff on women, marriage. the
caste system and death. At the heart of Hindoo Holiday is the
wonderfully unpredictable figure of his Highness the Maharajah
Sahib who, ultimately, just wants 'someone to love him'.
