Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. In this collection of short stories, the author explores the humorous and often absurd experiences of Berengaria, a young woman living in turn-of-the-century provincial India. Through her misadventures and observations, Berengaria unveils the quirks and eccentricities of colonial life…in India. An avid horsewoman, Berengariaâs relentless pursuit of a decent mount, for instance, leads to several comical situations, while her household is often in disarray due to her continually rotating staff of servants. However, the stories also touch on more serious themes such as the difficulties of motherhood in a foreign culture and the challenges of navigating different social worlds and protocols. Witty and engaging, the authorâs stories reveal the complexities and charms of the colonial experience, both for the British and for the Indians with whom they shared their lives. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
