"The author's account of her fifteen-month stay in the small Bangladeshi village of Talukpur has become a classic study of rural life in South Asia. A glossary is included. The author states that this book "is not an academic anthropological text but a series of stories, some of which I wrote whilst wiling away the evenings in Talukpur, and others which were completed on my return to Britain. Although 'true' in the sense that in essence all the events which I narrate took place, these events have been processed through the filter of my imagination, and have had to fit into my way of telling."--Preface."
