Olivia outrages the tiny, suffocating town where her husband is a civil servant by eloping with the captivating Nawab. It is also the story of Olivia's step-granddaughter who, fifty years later, is drawn to India by her fascination with the letters left behind by the now dead older woman, and by her obsession with solving the enigma of Olivia's scandal. A penetrating and compassionate love story, this brilliant novel immerses the reader in the heat, dust, and squalor of India, while providing a compelling mixture of the spiritual and the sensual.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Touchstone","offers":[{"title":"Heat and Dust | Ruth Prawer Jhabvala | Paperback | 9780671646578 | Used: Very Good | Fiction 1623722","offer_id":48313170526360,"sku":"1623722","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/514NcoxzIQL.jpg?v=1773163040","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/heat-and-dust","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
