When soldiers force the royal family out of the Glass Palace and into exile, Rajkumar befriends Dolly, a young woman in the court of the Burmese Queen, whose love will shape his life. He cannot forget her, and years later, as a rich man, he goes in search of her. The struggles that have made Burma, India, and Malaya the places they are today are illuminated in this wonderful novel by the writer Chitra Divakaruni calls “a master storyteller.” Praise for The Glass Palace Indian English Fiction Indian English Literature Indian English Fiction 124636 GHOSH (Amitav) 124637 058479 ddc BK 105842 105842 0 0 ddc 0 0 ENG AL AL SSS 2021-02-17 Athree Book Centre, Mangalore-01. 295.00 2 820.33 GHOG 058479 2024-03-12 00:00:00 2024-02-29 2021-02-17 BK 0 0 ddc 0 0 ENG AL AL 2023-06-17 4 1 820.33 GHOG D05900 2026-02-26 16:16:39 2026-02-16 295.00 2023-06-23 DB
