An End to Suffering: The Buddha in the World
by Pankaj Mishra
Picador £17.99, pp400
In 1992, Pankaj Mishra, then 23 and a graduate of the University of
Delhi, took himself off to the mountains to become a writer. The
mountains he chose were the Tibetan Himalayas. Like many young men, he
was not sure what he would write about, quite, but he was certain that
once he had found his retreat the words would start to come.
He got off the bus near the old colonial town of Simla and immediately
found himself a little cedar cottage that a local householder had
built with just his kind of solitary vocation in mind. It all seemed
too good to be true.
