India
by
Pierre Loti
Loti's idea in going to India was to discover if in the Buddhist faith he could find anything to replace the Catholic religion in which he could no longer believe. He visits the ruined temples of the ancient Gods, listens to the languorous Oriental music on the moonlight nights; he experiences nameless dreads, indescribable terrors.

The Sahara
by
Pierre Loti
Loti's sensitive, almost sensuous, and exotic art is peculiarly fitted for such a subject as "the great sea without water," and the Spahi on the Senegal, of romantic passion and seductive smile, "undisciplined but not dissolute," whose love adventures range from sordid and riotous town affairs to his passionate desert romance with Fatou-Gaye.
