The Daughter of Brahma is a novel written by Ida Alexa Ross Wylie and published in 1913. The story is set in India and follows the life of a young woman named Lalita, who is the daughter of a wealthy Brahmin family. Lalita is a strong-willed and independent woman who defies the traditional gender roles of her society and seeks to live life on her own terms.The novel explores themes of love, marriage, and freedom, as Lalita navigates her way through a society that values tradition and conformity above all else. Along the way, she falls in love with a British man named John, who shares her desire for independence and challenges the societal norms of their respective cultures.As Lalita and John's relationship deepens, they are faced with numerous obstacles, including disapproving family members, cultural differences, and the threat of violence from those who oppose their union. Despite these challenges, Lalita remains steadfast in her determination to be with the man she loves and to live a life of her own choosing.The Daughter of Brahma is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that explores the complexities of love and freedom in a society that values tradition above all else. Through Lalita's story, Wylie sheds light on the struggles faced by women in patriarchal societies and the importance of standing up for one's beliefs and desires, even in the face of opposition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
