A Beginners Guide to Dying in India

Book excerpt: After Levi's house burns down, he gets fired from his job and he discovers that his fiance is leaving him for some bearded hobo who died two thousand years ago, he decides things can't possibly get any worse. He is wrong. Levi's brother Jim calls and requests his urgent presence in India. Levi arrives to find a confronting request from Jim, a girl who is searching for the reincaration of her husband, a curiously sinister accountant and the overwhelming cacophony of sensations and experiences that India delivers in strictly super-sized serves. Welcome to India: land of one billion people, thirty millon gods, far too many monkeys and not nearly enough sanitary bathrooms. Please leave all preconceptions at the door and enjoy the ride." -- back cover.
