The elusive nature of life in India, as seen through the eyes of two British women, writing diaries which are cleverly intertwined. Olivia, the young wife of a British official, discovers a deeper side of herself when she meets an Indian Nawab. Fifty years later, the experiences of another young English woman in India echo those of her predecessor. A love story, and a thought-provoking look at India.
