| Description: |
Rumer Godden's classic novel tells the story of a young English woman's dramatic and disturbing experiences in Himalayan Kashmir. |
| Synopsis: |
Sophie, an English ingenue with two children, arrives in Himalayan Kashmir to set up home in a tumbledown cottage surrounded by flowers and herbs. Settling down to live quietly, frugally and peacefully with her new neighbours, she is unaware of the turmoil her arrival provokes as the villagers compete fiercely for her patronage. Sophie's cook makes a drastic bid to secure his position, and the unwanted consequences are catastrophic . . . |
