Saints of Sind

Saints of Sind

0 - Default Title
Description
Saints of Sind is an exploration of the mystical Sufi shrines and hereditary saints of Pakistan's Indus valley. Half anthropological quest, it is also the real pilgrimage of an Englishman, totally at home in the languages of the sub- continent, who is determined to immerse himself in the ways of a dervish seeking the ultimate truth.Peter Mayne's sharply tuned ear catches the hidden nuance of a phrase, while his whole being takes a rambunctious delight in responding to chance encounters. He treats each human with dignity but always delights in the bizarre and the eccentric, now and then catching hold of moments of sublimity. He is an addictively inventive and brilliant writer - witty, shrewd and wise.
