Dew and Mildew: Semi-Detached Stories from Karabad, India is a collection of short stories written by Percival Christopher Wren and first published in 1912. The book is set in the fictional town of Karabad, located in India during the British Raj period. The stories revolve around the lives of British expatriates and their interactions with the Indian population. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on the British characters and their experiences in India. The stories explore themes such as love, friendship, and betrayal, and provide a glimpse into the lives of the privileged class during colonial times. The second part of the book focuses on the Indian characters and their struggles to navigate the changing social and political landscape of India under British rule. The stories shed light on the injustices faced by the Indian population and the resistance movements that emerged against British colonialism. Overall, Dew and Mildew is a thought-provoking and insightful collection of stories that provides a nuanced portrayal of the complexities of life in colonial India. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Indian history and the impact of British colonialism on the country.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
