Leaving Moose Jaw

India may be one of the most written-about places on earth, but rarely like this. Taylor Lambert's journey through India combines two of the most enduring qualities of journalism: sincere and carefully detailed study of a subject—in this case, India—and a penchant for alcohol use (to say nothing of sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll). Spanning five months and thousands of kilometres, from rat-infested hotels to expensive Scotch in opulent surroundings... from smog-choked cities to empty island paradises... from a Hindi speaking role in Bollywood to drug-induced hallucinations on a rooftop... from the slums of Delhi to the meeting place of the seas and up to the Himalayas... this is India as seen through the eyes of an itinerant, itchy-footed journalist who just wanted to get out of Moose Jaw.
