East of Suez

Angebote / Angebote:

Originally published in 1901, 'East of Suez' was Alice Perrin's first collection of short stories. Her fascinating and thought-provoking tales of Anglo-Indian life rival the best work of Kipling, and were hugely successful in their day. Perrin tells stories of illicit love against a beautifully-drawn backdrop of the mystical east, interweaving the supernatural with exquisite details of her characters' lives. This scholarly edition includes: a critical introduction, author biography, suggestions for further reading, explanatory notes, contextual material on representations of the British Raj, illustrations from 'The Illustrated London News' and 'The Windsor Magazine'.
