Struck by a fatal illness, Dildo Iyengar, a Western-educated Brahmin, gives it all up and embarks on a journey across India in search of his roots, and enlightenment—preferably through union with the ultimate feminine energy. As he wanders footloose from Kinnaur in the high Himalaya to Tirupathi in the south, a host of eccentric characters come as traveling companions, including antique smuggling dons, stoned sadhu babas, tribal headmen, ageing hippies, and an omniscient ghost. Alive with wit and iconoclastic insight, Little Kingdoms is a pleasantly self-deprecating account of a modern man's search for himself and his God in an ancient land.
