About the Book
The Glass Palace: A Sweeping Epic of Love, War, and Destiny
Set against the backdrop of the British invasion of Burma in 1885, The Glass Palace is a masterful novel that traces the journey of Rajkumar, an orphaned Indian boy who rises from poverty to build a vast timber empire in the Burmese teak forests.
As British soldiers storm the royal palace and force the Burmese King, Queen, and their court into exile, Rajkumar’s life becomes intertwined with that of Dolly, a young attendant to the Queen. Though fate separates them, Rajkumar’s love for Dolly never fades, and years later, as a wealthy man, he embarks on a journey to find her.
Spanning over a century and weaving through Burma, India, and Malaya, Amitav Ghosh’s epic novel explores themes of colonialism, ambition, and the shifting tides of history. It captures the complexities of cultural identity and the entanglements between the British, Indian, and Burmese people.
From the rise of the teak trade to the devastation of World War II and the post-colonial diaspora, The Glass Palace is a breathtaking tale of resilience, ambition, and the enduring power of love amidst historical upheaval.
