"…on previous occasions that I have returned home after a long absence…I have hardly noticed such details, and certainly have not invested them with the significance I now do. I think it is the gradualness of my journey that has caused this. With air travel the shock of arrival is more immediate: the family,…the climate all strike with simultaneous impact, so that the mind is bewildered, and the particular implications of small things obscured."
- Vikram Seth in From Heaven Lake
