Nurjahan
Jyoti Jafa
A landmark in Indian historical fiction in English, this sumptuous, richly detailed saga of India?s most enigmatic and powerful Mughal empress is magnificently told, by an author herself steeped in Rajput tradition.
Jehangir retorted:
Nurjahan, I flavour my existence with opium just as you flavour yours with power??
Nurjahan?s thoughts raced. Khusro, Khurram, Mahabat Khan. The three most dangerous men in Hindustan. Three men she dared not trust. She must be careful, thought Nurjahan. The Emperor must believe that the decision was his?
Jyoti Jafa is an aristocrat by birth, a diplomat by training and a writer by inclination. She infuses her writing with her own joie de vivre and an artist’s sensitivity to ambience. She is also the author of Really, Your Highness! – a humorous look at the aristocracy of India.
