The birth of a great civilisation.. Gem in the Lotus is a lucid and comprehensive portrait of early Indian Civilisation, its religious and cultural traditions as well as the everyday life of the people. These traditions and lifestyles are in many ways still alive in India today.The story begins with the Indus Civilisation, which endured for a thousand years between 2500 and 1500 BC. It was eventually superseded by Aryan migrants, who composed on the banks of the rivers of Punjab, the Vedas, the oldest religious literature in an Indo- European language. There then followed in the middle of the first millenium BC, a period of astonishing intellectual ferment, which produced the subtle mystical speculations of the Upanishads and a whole host of daringly radical philosophers.

Set in a Central Europe rapidly fragmenting after the fall of Communism, "Men in Space" follows a cast of dissolute Bohemians, political refugees, football referees, deaf police agents, assassins and stranded astronauts as they chase a stolen icon painting from Sofia to Prague and beyond. The icon's melancholy orbit is reflected in the various characters' ellipses and near misses as they career vertiginously through all kinds of space: physical, political, emotional and metaphysical. What emerges is a vision of humanity adrift in history, and a world in a state of disintegration.
