On the publication of The Far Pavilions

The TV series was in the early eighties. I had just arrived and was in a Ph.D. program at Penn. I had almost no time to read fiction, until about 2 years later, when I "caught up" by reading 2nd hand books I bought at flea markets. Thanks AMSP and my son,for all those weekends in the Princeton area. kmk 2-10-2018
