Fleming on India



"India has always depressed me. I cant bear the universal dirt and squalor and the impression, false I am sure, that everyone is doing no work except living off his neighbour.  And I am desolated by the outward manifestations of the two great Indian religions. Ignorant, narrow-minded, bigoted? Of course I am."

-Ian Fleming, Thrilling Cities (1963)
