Description:

In the late 1960s, two lovers, John Walker from a powerful American family and Diane Maes, a Belgian hippie, converge in South India to build a utopian community called Auroville. Their faith is strong, but two decades later, they both mysteriously die on the same day in a remote hut. Akash Kapur, the author, sets out to unravel this enigma. These deaths are deeply personal to him as John and Diane were his wife's parents, and they all lived in Auroville. As he returns to Auroville with his family in 2004, Kapur delves into the mysteries surrounding the deaths, exploring the human cost of pursuing utopian ideals. "Better to Have Gone" is a compelling narrative that delves into the quest for a better world, the concept of utopia, and the daily life within a utopian community. Richly atmospheric and filled with vivid characters, this book offers a heartbreaking and unforgettable story.
