Synopsis
Because of Sarah Lloyd's relationship with a placid, beautiful, opium-addicted Sikh, she spent two years in rural India, first in a remote mud-built Punjabi village, and then in the impoverished community of a dubious holy-man. Here she lived in a minute brick hut with living expenses of only 50 pence a day. This book is part travel book, part love story.

Review
A remarkable achievement: beautifully written, sympathetic without being starry-eyed...lots of real wisdom and sensitivity and delicious quiet humour. -- Dervla Murphy, The Times Literary Supplement
A remarkable book...a traveller's tale, a love story, and above all, a brilliant exposé of village India -- John Keay, The Sunday Telegraph
An Indian Attachment is harder to put down than any thriller. -- John Mellors, London Magazine
She brings the beauties of India (and its squalors) vividly to life, with great love. -- Philippa Toomey, The Tablet
Travel writing will never be the same again. -- Anne de Courcy, The Evening Standard
About the Author
Sarah Lloyd was born in London in 1947 and educated at North London Collegiate School. Afterwards she trained as a landscape architect. At the age of 25, having won a British Council scholarship to Brazil, she began the first of her many journeys abroad. Since then travelling has been a compulsion, and she never spent more than a year in one place until 1982 when she bought a house in Staffordshire. In 1987 she published her second book Chinese Characters, a travelogue based on eight months in China. since then she has practised both as a landscape architect and a landscape photographer.
