A rare, exotic portrait of the matriarchs of a brilliant Indian family

Ranging from the final days of the Raj and the British Empire to the present, Lucy Moore vividly re-creates a splendid lost world and describes India’s national growing pains through the sumptuous, audacious lives of four ravishing, influential women of the same family—Sunity Devi, friend to Queen Victoria; Chimnabai, fierce nationalist; Indira, her flamboyant daughter; and Ayesha, her equally fashionable daughter—who fought tirelessly and with incomparable grace to turn an ancient tradition of noblesse oblige into a progressive democracy. BACKCOVER: “Scintillating. Moore revels in every detail—from the elegance of the maharanis’ attire, to the complexities of Indian family life and politics, to the trauma and heroism of breaking with tradition.-- Booklist (starred review)

“A fascinating picture of a vanished world.”

—Sarah Bradford, author of Lucrezia Borgia
