About this listen
In 1923 the beautiful, spoiled, and bored Olivia, married to Douglas and his career in the Indian Civil Service, outrages the English and Indian communities by eloping with an Indian prince. Fifty years later, Douglas’s granddaughter, armed with Olivia’s letters, goes back to the heat and dust and squalor of the bazaars to find out for herself how Olivia could have been so affected by India that she turned her back on her own country.

The story is so intricate
The story is so intricate that I feel to be a part of it or shared this journey with them decades ago. It gives the warmth of a handmade sweater woven by the mother. I can't stop thinking about how many fabulous creations I still have to uncover. It's an undying search, in my opinion.
Except that Narrator says few Indian Words like BEGUM incorrectly. It doesn't matter once you know the word, but her voice is pleasant and soothing
