He is a writer, whose is himself as traveller between the worlds, journeying on a quest that leads him through different cultures and religions.

Review:
"A lyrical homage to India's holiest, moodiest, foulest river... Trojanow is the perfect mix of insider and outsider. A Hindi speaker,he can also stand back and see what makes India tick... It is a treasure of a book, a must-have for anyone spending time on the Ganges and wanting to get to know her better." (Susan Elderkin Financial Times)
