Circle of Light, also known as Dhawalegeri, is a novel written by Hugh Poyntz Malet in 1869. The story takes place in India during the British Raj and follows the life of a young Englishman named Hugh Ellingham who travels to India to work as a civil servant. Along the way, he meets a young Indian woman named Dhawalegeri who becomes his guide and confidante. Together they navigate the complex cultural and political landscape of India, facing challenges and obstacles as they try to bridge the gap between their two worlds. The novel explores themes of colonialism, cultural differences, and the struggle for independence in India. It also delves into the personal relationships and emotions of the characters, including the romantic tension between Hugh and Dhawalegeri. Circle of Light is a vivid portrayal of life in India during the 19th century and offers a unique perspective on the British Raj from both the colonizer and colonized point of view. It is a compelling and thought-provoking read that sheds light on a pivotal moment in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
