AUTHOR
SUMMARY
"The ingenious devices used to avoid a straightforward chronicle of events also slow down the narrative considerably. But the book's real limitation is that the rape of Daphne Manners is given a symbolic importance....The rape and its consequences are of such importance to the book's general theme of British-Indian relationships that the scales appear to have been heavily weighted....[S]olidly powerful as a creation of Mayapore and its shifting society..."Scott, Paul is the author of 'Jewel in the Crown', published 1998 under ISBN 9780226743400 and ISBN 0226743403.
