The Hill of Devi

An Englishman Serving at the Court of a Maharaja

Beschreibung

This book chronicles Forster's infatuation and exasperation, fascination, and amusement at this idiosyncratic court, leading us with him to its heart and the eight- day festival of Gokul Ashtami, marking the birth of Krishna, where we see His Highness Maharajah Sir Tukoji Rao III dancing before the altar like David before the Ark.

Autor

Edward Morgan Forster (1879 - 1970) was an English fiction writer, essayist, and librettist. Many of his novels examine class difference and hypocrisy, including A Room with a View (1908), Howards End (1910), and A Passage to India (1924). The last brought him his greatest success. He was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature in 16 separate years.
