This girl. is going to make it to the top with her second novel,` I said to myself (as I finished Rani Dharker`s first novel) . In her, we have a clever, erudite woman who can communicate Indian thought and tradition to the Western world as few living writers of India today.` Khushwant Singh
Here`s Anurima, the second novel Khushwant Singh spoke about. It takes us to Sonapur, once a princely state, now a bustling city, where the lives of three people, very unlike each other, collide in unusual circumstances. There`s Royina, young but stubbornly quiet; Krishan, a charismatic young artist. And then there`s Elise, a Jew from Austria, who spends her last days reliving memories of Sonapur`s lost glory. Memories whose dominant figure is the hauntingly beautiful Princess Anurima. Mesmerising and dream-like, Anurima is also Royina`s journey into that past, a journey in which she rediscovers herself.
