5.0 out of 5 stars Breathtaking, 18 Mar 2007

By	Ms. M. Scott "Millimorph" (London, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Splendor of Silence (Hardcover)

This book made me laugh and cry. The author effortlessly weaves historical accuracy into a fairytale about princesses, adding a drop of Indian legend and enchanting detail. The story is set against the horror of WW2 in Burma and northern India and touches on issues of social justice, class disparity, religion, colonialism, race relations and magic. It is beautifully evocative of a lost time and easily related to the present. Read it.
