Présentation de l'éditeur
Fay Fleetwood said something angry under her breath. Being a door in an old-fashioned Indian bungalow albeit the bungalow was one in a popular hill-station it had no lock, only long bolts at the top and the bottom, and the lower bolt scraped on the floor in defiant accompaniment to the squeak of the hinges. Fay listened, anxious, intent. A cross the passage her fathers snores resounded loud, long, regular. She marvelled how her mother could rest with such a noise in the room but then it took a good deal to disturb mother either sleeping or awake. In the present circumstances this was fortunate, for had Mrs Fleetwood heard movements at such an early hour in her youngest daughters bedroom she might have arisen to investigate the cause, and would certainly have prohibited Fay sexpedition to the top of the hill to see the dawn break over the snows. Mother would forbid such mad nonsense once she knew of it, and add the usual things that so bored Fay to hear: You must recollect that you are sixteen no longer a child. We really ought to have left you at home. We really ought not to keep you in I ndia, etc., etc.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the unique world of Anglo-Indians, offering a glimpse into their lives and experiences in colonial India. Through the eyes of young Fay Fleetwood, we witness the complexities of navigating cultural identities and the deep-seated love for a land that is both home and foreign. Set against the backdrop of the British Raj, the author paints a vivid picture of life in the hills and plains of India, capturing the sights, sounds, and even smells of this vibrant country. We encounter lavish parties thrown by high-ranking officials, witness the daily routines of servants and villagers, and journey alongside Fay as she seeks solace in the breathtaking beauty of the Himalayas. The narrative explores themes of belonging, cultural clashes, and the challenges faced by those caught between two worlds. Fay's fascination with Indian culture and her resistance to the rigid expectations of her English upbringing raise questions about identity and the enduring influence of one's environment. Ultimately, this book offers a poignant reflection on the complexities of life in colonial India, revealing the profound impact it had on individuals and families, and the enduring legacy it has left behind.
