About the Author: David H.
It explores how they confront the challenges of climate change, urban growth, economic development, land, water and natural resources, and national and ethnic identity.
Much like its predecessor, Mould\'s Postcards from Stanland, Monsoon Postcards offers witty and insightful glimpses into countries linked by history, trade, migration, religion, and a colonial legacy.
Along the way, in markets, shops, roadside cafes, and classrooms, he meets journalists, professors, students, aid workers, cab drivers, and other everyday residents to learn how they view their past and future.
Mould travels from the traffic snarls of Delhi, Dhaka, and Jakarta to the rice paddies and ancestral tombs of Madagascar\'s Central Highlands; from the ancient kingdom of Hyderabad to India\'s so-called chicken neck--the ethnically diverse and underdeveloped northeast; and from the textile factories and rivers of Bangladesh to the beaches of Bali and the province of Aceh--ground zero for the 2004 tsunami.
It\'s an unpredictable journey on battered buses, bush taxis, auto-rickshaws, and crowded ferries.
Mould, notebook in hand, traverses the Indian Ocean--from Madagascar through India and Bangladesh to Indonesia.
