Vikram Seth began his studies at Doon School in Patna, then moved to Kent (England) to study at Tonbridge School and then at Corpus Christi (Oxford). In 1975 he obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Economics at Stanford University (California), where a poet became his mentor, helping him to develop his creativity. His Ph.D. did in China (Nanjing University). After completing the studies, he began a trip through China, Tibet and Nepal. This adventure draws inspiration for “Autostop for the Himalayas”, a book that won a prestigious book prize.
MISTAKEN – I smiled at you, because I thought that you were someone else. You smiled back, and there grew between two strangers in a library.

And by and by we found we’d been mistaken all the while from that first glance, that first mistaken smile.
