Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Set in the war-torn world of Mughal India and first published in the gathering darkness of the 1930s, the three novels collected in "The Root and the Flower" are stories of intrigue, murder, and romance; of Tantric abandonment and Buddhist renunciation; of emotional delirium and spiritual adventure. This enthralling visionary trilogy is, as Penelope Fitzgerald remarks in her introduction, a "strange masterpiece," and one of the unsung glories of modern literature.
