India

India’s vastness appears through languages, wildlife, play, mountains, festivals, science, and architecture rather than one single national image.

India greets Cappy with a quieter way to say hello and then fills his route with surprises: a peacock he mistakes for a fan, two games with long histories, a tiger hidden like a carpet, a mountain too great for an afternoon stroll, vivid festivals, tiny lamps, a lunar achievement, and the Taj Mahal at dawn. Each encounter asks him to pause before grabbing, hiding, climbing, or assuming.
