Synopsis
"S." is Sara Worth, a Boston matron who jettisons her doctor husband, daughter, and comfortable lifestyle to join the Arizona ashram of a Hindu religious leader known as the Arhat. In a stream of written and taped communications to her family and friends back east, Sara relates the story of her rise to prominence at the ashram and of her surprising discovery about its founder. A hilarious romp through 1980s American culture.
