Are You Experienced?

Description

The gap year classic, available as a Penguin Essential for the first time in the year of its 20th anniversary.

A devastatingly funny satire on the whole idea of student travel, and particularly the India back-pack trail. Dave travels to India with Liz because he thinks he might be able to get her into bed. Liz travels to India with Dave because she wants a companion for her voyage of spiritual discovery. She loves it. He dreams of frosty mornings, pints of lager and restaurants where vegetable curry is only a side-dish...

Are You Experienced? by William Sutcliffe is a witty exploration of the clash between romanticised ideals and harsh reality, set against the vibrant backdrop of India.
