In these stories of Indian life in the late nineteenth century, Cornelia Sorabji captures the experiences of Hindu purdahnashin—women cut off from the outside world—Zoroastrian priestesses, and orphaned children alike. Filled with examples of struggle and perseverance, Love and Life Behind the Purdah is a moving, socially conscious portrait of a vast country and its diverse peoples.
