Description
In this third volume of The Raj Quartet, attention focuses on Barbara Batchelor, a retired mission school teacher. We see the world through her eyes and with her perspective. The Manners case and the politics of Congress leader Mohammed Ali Kasim are relegated to the background as Barbara takes the lead. Where women are traditionally reticent, her character is a revolution in its own right. "Scott's superb saga of the decline and fall of the British raj in India speaks to us robustly with its vivid characters and finely crafted plot." (Publishers Weekly) - from Amzon
