Moonglade is a novel written by Marguerite Cunliffe-Owen and published in 1915. The story follows the life of a young woman named Moonglade, who is born and raised in India during the British Raj. Moonglade is the daughter of a British officer and an Indian mother, and she struggles to find her place in a society that is divided by race and class.As Moonglade grows up, she becomes increasingly aware of the injustices and inequalities that exist in colonial India. She witnesses firsthand the exploitation of Indian workers by British employers, and she becomes involved in the Indian independence movement.The novel is a powerful exploration of identity, race, and colonialism, and it offers a nuanced portrayal of the complex relationships between British and Indian people during the Raj. Through Moonglade’s experiences, the novel sheds light on the ways in which colonialism shaped the lives of both British and Indian people, and it raises important questions about power, privilege, and resistance.Overall, Moonglade is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers a unique perspective on the history of colonial India.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
