Palimpsest is another word for books
Read of the Moment
Stars of South Asia from Oxford
This is the first book tracing the long tradition of South Asia’s future leaders and opinion formers being shaped by Oxford. From pioneering lawyer Cornelia Sorabji to modern author Monica Ali, via the young Indira Gandhi, what links them all is their relationship to the university town. This is a colourful telling of the stories of some of the remarkable South Asian individuals who left the gopura and onion domes of home for the dreaming spires of Oxford – and what they did with their degrees afterwards.
