Description

The Golden Threshold is a collection of poems by Sarojini Naidu, an Indian poetess and political activist. The book was first published in 1905 and includes some of Naidu's earliest works. The poems in this collection are deeply personal and reflect Naidu's experiences growing up in a traditional Indian household, as well as her experiences as a woman in a male-dominated society. The themes of love, nature, and spirituality are prominent throughout the collection. Naidu's poetry is known for its lyrical quality and vivid imagery, and The Golden Threshold is no exception. The book is considered a classic of Indian literature and is a must-read for anyone interested in poetry, Indian culture, or women's rights.Whither dost thou hide from the magic of my flute-call? In what moonlight-tangled meshes of perfume, Where the clustering keovas guard the squirrel's slumber, Where the deep woods glimmer with the jasmine's bloom?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
