Hardback. Condition: Fair. Hitting rock bottom as a homeless drug addict, Cheeni Rao returns to his family to find the door locked. Behind it he hears his Indian immigrant mother sobbing, "I can do nothing for you. You are now in Hanuman's hands." Hanuman, the Hindu monkey god, is his last resort. In Hanuman's Hands is a gritty, hauntingly beautiful memoir by Cheeni Rao, a young man born to a long line of Indian Hindu priests, who faced with the freedoms and temptations of life on an elite New England college campus, spirals down into a hedonistic nightmare of drugs, sex and crime. On his long journey to recovery and rehabilitation, he is magically guided by visions of Hanuman, the trickster monkey god of the Indian epic poem, the Ramayana.

Remarkably, he also weaves into his story fully realized visions of his Hindu ancestry. . . . In Hanuman's Hands beguiles."-Wall Street Journal. …
