Description
The Story of Sonny Sahib is a novel written by Mrs. Everard Cotes, also known by her pen name, Sara Jeannette Duncan. The book is set in colonial India during the late 19th century and follows the story of Sonny Sahib, a young Indian boy who is sent to England for his education. Sonny is the son of a wealthy Indian family and is expected to return to India after completing his studies to take his place in society. However, Sonny finds himself torn between his Indian heritage and the western culture he is exposed to in England. As he struggles to find his place in the world, Sonny must also navigate the complex relationships between the British colonizers and the Indian people they rule over. The novel explores themes of identity, cultural conflict, and colonialism through the eyes of Sonny and the other characters in the story. Mrs. Cotes, who lived in India for many years, draws on her own experiences to create a vivid and nuanced portrayal of life in colonial India. Overall, The Story of Sonny Sahib is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that offers a unique perspective on the complex history of colonialism in India.Next morning the Maharajah was very much annoyed by the intelligence that all the little red-spotted fishes were floating flabby and flat and dead among the lily pads of the fountain--there were few things except Moti that the Maharajah loved better than his little red-spotted fishes. He wanted very particularly to know why they should have died in this unanimous and apparently preconcerted way. The gods had probably killed them by lightning, but the Maharajah wanted to know. So he sent for the Englishman, who did not mind touching a dead thing, and the Englishman told him that the little red-spotted fishes had undoubtedly been poisoned. Moti was listening when the doctor said this.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
