Zenani Deordhi: The Life and Journey of a Princess (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Fateh Kanwar, the princess of Bikaner, stunningly beautiful and noble was not born to rule. Or so she thought.
Married at the age of twelve, the tender love grew in her life after she took saptpadi with the crown prince of Jaipur. They were two young lives converging on a deadly course: one an innocent princess of Bikaner, who was living an idyllic life in royal corridors, the other , a young charming prince, who had spent all his life defying the traditions and Rajdharma, even after ascending the throne.
After a series of shocking events, it was her brilliant mother-in-law, who paved the way for her elevation to be a regent queen. But yet again her world turned upside down.
She perceived the political intrigues and power play of her two most trusted people as the key to her rule. Destiny defied her again. Fateh Kanwar herself becomes a victim of greed for power. Or so the people believed.
Set in the last quarter of the eighteenth and the early nineteenth century India, 'Zenani Deordhi' is a compelling tale of a kingdom in peril.

It is the tale of love and loss, pleasure and pain, and lust and greed. It is a vivid account of the lifelong struggle of a simple young woman, who walked the tightrope of being a queen and a mother and therefore became a sweeping story that is as relevant today as it was yesterday.

Autorenporträt

Santosh Singh, who was born and brought up in Uttar Pradesh, currently lives in Agra; and when she is not writing she enjoys travelling, managing her potted plants on the terrace, reading and some more reading! Santosh began her working life as a teacher and then joined the Institute of Social Sciences in New Delhi. She spent twenty years as a social researcher in the Institute exploring the socio-political processes that greatly affect women and their aspirations in a rural milieu. During her career as a social scientist, she penned academic books such as 'Violence Against Rural Women', 'Combatant Women', 'Learning Societies Shifting Patterns' and 'Passion for Flames'.

She was long tempted to try her hand at fiction. Before becoming a full-time fiction writer, being a bilingual she first began writing stories, both in English and Hindi, which were accepted by the magazines and newspapers' story section.

After a gap of years, she was drawn to the idea of historical fiction and finally set out to write the sort of books she liked to read. She thinks it is really easy to get lost in our lives and forget what is important... What is important to her is her family and her work. To her, the world of books is fascinating and she is dabbling in it.

Her debut novel, Zenani Deordhi, is a plot driven by character, whereas her latest novel, She - The Forgotten Epoch, is driven by circumstances that build a character.
