The Vow of Silence is a novel written by Alice Perrin and published in 1920. The story is set in India during the British Raj and follows the life of a young woman named Zora, who takes a vow of silence after a traumatic incident. Zora lives with her father, a British officer, and her mother, who is of Indian descent. Despite her vow of silence, Zora finds herself drawn to a young Indian man named Rama, who becomes her friend and confidant. As Zora struggles to come to terms with her past and her present, she must navigate the complex social and cultural dynamics of colonial India. The novel explores themes of identity, power, and the clash of cultures, as well as the role of women in a society that values silence and submission. Perrin's writing is praised for its vivid descriptions of India and its people, as well as its nuanced portrayal of the characters and their relationships. The Vow of Silence is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers a unique perspective on a fascinating period in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
