It's the Temblor Mountain Range in California, but it really does look like a northern Israel scene in springtime. Similar Mediterranean climate in any case. My bad.

It didn't become one of my all time favorites, and at the end I didn't feel like I'd arrived at any huge culmination or anything, but as a story to get immersed into one character's view of everyday life in India, and the caste system and politics and social system, it was a good listen (I had the audio book.) The character telling the story is full of wit and sarcasm, so the read is never boring...if you're in the mood for intricate plot and unforeseen twists, etc., this ain't it, but if you're in the mood to sit back and listen to a good storyteller weave some magic with a lot of tangents and jokes and social insight along the way, it's that kind of good.
