High in the Himalayas near Darjeeling, the old mountaintop palace shines like a jewel. When it was the General's 'harem' palace, richly dressed ladies wandered the windswept terraces; at night, music floated out over the villages and gorges. Now, the General's son has bestowed it on an order of nuns, the Sisters of Mary. Well-intentioned yet misguided, the nuns set about taming the gardens and opening a school and dispensary for the villagers. They are dependent on the local English agent of Emp... High in the Himalayas near Darjeeling, the old mountaintop palace shines like a jewel. When it was the General's 'harem' palace, richly dressed ladies wandered the windswept terraces; at night, music floated out over the villages and gorges. Now, the General's son has bestowed it on an order of nuns, the Sisters of Mary. Well-intentioned yet misguided, the nuns set about taming the gardens and opening a school and dispensary for the villagers. They are dependent on the local English agent of Empire, Mr Dean; but his charm and insolent candour are disconcerting. And the implacable emptiness of the mountain, the ceaseless winds, exact a toll on the Sisters.When Mr Dean says bluntly, 'This is no place for a nunnery,' it is as if he foresees their destiny...Taal: Engels;Afmetingen: 20x212x134 mm;Gewicht: 221,00 gram;Verschijningsdatum: februari 2013;ISBN10: 1844088391;ISBN13: 9781844088393; Engelstalig | Paperback | 2013.

'All horses can walk - some badly, some well, but to a few is given a gift of movement feline in its grace, a slouching, flowing continuous movement that is a joy to watch. Dark Invader strode in glorious rhythm, his great shoulders rolling, muscles rippling along his flanks under the satin skin.' Dark Invader is a beautifully bred racehorse, but after a disappointing first season he is sold in disgrace and shipped from England to Calcutta. With love and gentle handling 'Darkie' wins the hearts of the people and becomes the firm favourite for India's most famous race, the Viceroy Cup. But three days before the race Dark Invader disappears. Can he be found before it is too late?Soort: Met illustraties;Taal: Engels;Afmetingen: 14x197x129 mm;Gewicht: 162,00 gram;Geschikt voor: 9 - 12 jaar;Verschijningsdatum: april 2014;Druk: 1;ISBN10: 1844088529;ISBN13: 9781844088522; Engelstalig | Paperback | 2014.

The basis for Powell & Pressburger´s Academy Award-winning 1947 film, Rumer Godden´s much-admired classic novel tells the story of a sisterhood of nuns on a mission in Himalayan India. ´A remarkable and beautiful book´ Daily Telegraph ´Like Daphne du Maurier´s Rebecca or Margaret Mitchell´s Gone with the Wind, Black Narcissus is one of those rare novels that combine huge popular appeal with emotional subtlety and literary skill´ Anne Chisholm High in the Himalayas, the old mountaintop palace shines like a jewel. Built for the General´s harem, laughter and music once floated out over the gorge. But now it sits abandoned; windswept and haunting. The General´s son bestows the palace to the Sisters of Mary, and ´the House of Women´, as it was once known, becomes the Convent of St Faith. Close to the heavens, the nuns feel inspired, working fervently to establish their school and hospital. But the isolation and emptiness of the mountain become increasingly unsettling, and passions long repressed emerge with tragic consequences . . . 07.02.2013, Taschenbuch.
