The Far Pavilions
A British Officer. An Indian Princess.
Can love defy an empire?
Unaware of his British origins, Ashok, a serving boy living and working in the Palace of Winds, befriends Princess Anjuli, the Maharajah's daughter.
The recent loss of her mother and the treachery and intrigue of her father's court leads to a pact of eternal friendship, sealed by breaking a medallion
in two. Ashok will wear one half and Anjuli the other always.
Meeting in secret, they dream of a simple life beyond the farthest mountain, where the divisions between them no longer exist.
The Far Pavilions charts the journey of Ashok as he is separated from
Anjuli, educated in England, and then returns to India to serve the British
Raj as Lieutenant Ashton Pelham Martyn. Ash's attempt at a new life with the
Governor's daughter, Belinda, ends in public humiliation as a love rival,
Captain Harkness, reveals details of Ash's upbringing at a society ball. Ash
is tarnished with the reputation of a misfit. His very loyalty comes into
question as he is recalled from active duty and sent to Rajasthan as an
escort to a Princess, promised in marriage to a neighbouring King.
Twelve years of absence melt away as Ash returns his half of the keepsake to
Anjuli. They realise that childhood friendship has blossomed into love.
Protocol and custom remain seemingly insurmountable obstacles but a
sandstorm gives them the chance of escape. One stolen night in a desert
cave, sets off a chain of events that neither Ashok nor Anjuli could have
imagined in their wildest dreams.
