About
One evening in January 1989, Paolo Roversi stopped at the Malabar Hotel in Cochin, in the Kerala region. He had already made several trips to India. That evening, as he began reading Pier Paolo Pasolini's The Smell of India, he realized that he was staying in the very same hotel where his fellow Italian had stayed almost thirty years earlier. In 1961, Pasolini traveled to India with Alberto Moravia and Elsa Morante. The Smell of India, which he wrote upon his return, recounts his impressions, his nocturnal wanderings, and his encounters. In this book, Pasolini expresses his wonder and his sensitive experience of a different humanity, far removed from Western perceptions.
