English, August An Indian Story 9780330538763 gunned down in San Francisco'sAgastya Sen, known to friends by the English name August, is a child of the Indian elite. His friends go to Yale and Harvard. August himself has just landed a prize government job, which takes him to Madna a town with the highest temperatures in India deep in the sticks.
