Rama's Labyrinth - Sandra Wagner-Wright - Bog

Biographical historical fiction that takes the reader across India during the last decades of the British Raj. From a girlhood among Hindu shrines to widowhood and Christian conversion, Rama seeks her destiny. Is it only to educate Hindu widows? Or does God have a larger plan in mind? Rama's Labyrinth traces the life of Pandita Ramabai, a social reformer who rose above personal adversity to rescue and educate famine victims. Praise for Rama's Labyrinth: ". . . a thoroughly convincing dramatic take on a strand of Indian history rarely touched on in fiction." -- Steve Donoghue, Historical Novel Society. "Clearly written, subtle in the treatment of intimacies, with excellent sensorial immediacy, Rama's Labyrinth is a weekend's engaging pursuit." Five Stars -- David Lloyd Sutton, San Francisco Book Review.
