Mal Moulee is a novel by Ella Wheeler Wilcox that tells the story of a young woman named Mal Moulee, who is born into a family of wealthy landowners in India. Despite her privileged upbringing, Mal Moulee is drawn to the teachings of Mahatma Gandhi and becomes an active participant in the Indian independence movement. Along the way, she falls in love with a British journalist named Richard, who shares her passion for social justice and political change. However, their relationship is complicated by the cultural and political tensions of the time, as well as by the expectations of their respective families and communities. As Mal Moulee becomes increasingly involved in the struggle for independence, she must confront difficult choices and sacrifices, including the risk of losing Richard and her own safety and security. Through her journey, the novel explores themes of love, identity, cultural conflict, and the struggle for freedom and equality.1886. Wilcox attempted no fine descriptions, no rare word-painting, no flights of eloquence. These things did not lie within her province. As simply and as briefly as possible, she endeavored to relate such events as occur almost daily in our midst. In the selection of a title, she could not find a suitable English term which would express the meaning she wished to convey in unison with the leading idea of the book, therefore she was obliged, without reluctance, to use a French term.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox (November 5, 1850 - October 30, 1919) was an American author and poet. Her works include Poems of Passion and Solitude, which contains the lines "Laugh, and the world laughs with you; weep, and you weep alone". Her autobiography, The Worlds and I, was published in 1918, a year before her death. A popular poet rather than a literary poet, in her poems she expresses sentiments of cheer and optimism in plainly written, rhyming verse. Her world view is expressed in the title of her poem "Whatever Is-Is Best", suggesting an echo of Alexander Pope's "Whatever is, is right," a concept formally articulated by Gottfried Leibniz and parodied by Voltaire's character Doctor Pangloss in Candide. None of Wilcox's works were included by F. O. Matthiessen in The Oxford Book of American Verse, but Hazel Felleman chose fourteen of her poems for Best Loved Poems of the American People, while Martin Gardner selected "The Way Of The World" and "The Winds of Fate" for Best Remembered Poems. She is frequently cited in anthologies of bad poetry, such as The Stuffed Owl: An Anthology of Bad Verse and Very Bad Poetry. Sinclair Lewis indicates Babbitt's lack of literary sophistication by having him refer to a piece of verse as "one of the classic poems, like 'If-' by Kipling, or Ella Wheeler Wilcox's 'The Man Worth While.'" The latter opens: It is easy enough to be pleasant, When life flows by like a song, But the man worth while is one who will smile, When everything goes dead wrong. Her poem Solitude opens: Laugh and the world laughs with you, Weep, and you weep alone; The good old earth must borrow its mirth, But has trouble enough of its own. The Winds of Fate One ship drives east and another drives west With the selfsame winds that blow. 'Tis the set of the sails, And Not the gales, That tell us the way to go. Like the winds of the sea are the ways of fate; As we voyage along through life, 'Tis the set of a soul That decides its goal, And not the calm or the strife. Wheeler Wilcox cared about alleviating animal suffering, as can be seen from her poem, "Voice of the Voiceless". It begins as follows: So many gods, so many creeds, So many paths that wind and wind, While just the art of being kind Is all the sad world needs. I am the voice of the voiceless; Through me the dumb shall speak, Till the deaf world's ear be made to hear The wrongs of the wordless weak. From street, from cage, and from kennel, From stable and zoo, the wail Of my tortured kin proclaims the sin Of the mighty against the frail. She made an appearance during World War I in France, reciting her poem, The Stevedores ("Here's to the Army stevedores, lusty virile and strong...") while visiting a camp of 9,000 US Army stevedores.

I step across the mystic border-land, And look upon the wonder-world of Art. How beautiful, how beautiful its hills! And all its valleys, how surpassing fair! The winding paths that lead up to the heights Are polished by the footsteps of the great. The mountain-peaks stand very near to God: The chosen few whose feet have trod thereon Have talked with Him, and with the angels walked.
