Description
Journey across a century of displacement, ambition, and sweeping historical change with The Glass Palace by Booker Prize-shortlisted author Amitav Ghosh, presented in a stunning new Borough Edition!
About the Book: Spanning from the rich teak forests of Burma to the bustling streets of Bengal and Malaya, The Glass Palace is an epic, unforgettable historical novel that opens with the British invasion of Mandalay in 1885. The fall of the Burmese royal family sets off a sprawling, multi-generational saga centered on Rajkumar, an ambitious orphan boy who rises from poverty to build a timber empire, and Dolly, an orphan-turned-royal attendant whose life is forever intertwined with his. Blending grand historical events—including the devastation of World War II and the twilight of the British Empire—with deeply intimate human stories, Amitav Ghosh crafts a magnificent masterpiece about love, loss, and the resilience of the human spirit.
