The Rose and the Lotus: Or Home in England, and Home in India is a novel written by Elizabeth Johnston and published in 1859. The book tells the story of two sisters, Rose and Lotus, who were born in India but raised in England. When their father dies, they return to India to claim their inheritance and start a new life.The novel explores the cultural differences between England and India, as well as the challenges that the sisters face in adapting to their new home. It also touches upon themes of love, family, and identity.Throughout the book, the sisters navigate their way through the social and cultural norms of India, while also grappling with their own personal struggles. Rose becomes enamored with an Indian prince, while Lotus struggles to reconcile her English upbringing with her Indian heritage.Overall, The Rose and the Lotus is a compelling tale of two sisters caught between two worlds, and the challenges they face in finding their place in each. It offers a unique perspective on the British Empire and the complexities of colonialism, while also exploring universal themes of identity and belonging.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
