About the Book
This powerful historical novel by Prapanchan vividly recreates the rise and decline of the French colonial enterprise in India, centering on the culturally rich region of Puducherry during the period 1740–1750. Blending historical fact with imaginative storytelling, the narrative offers readers a compelling portrait of colonial politics, ambition, trade, and cultural encounters in eighteenth-century India.
Drawing inspiration from the diary of Anandarangam Pillai, the trusted dubash and intermediary for the French administration in Puducherry, the novel brings together history and fiction to create a richly layered literary experience. Through political intrigue, personal conflicts, and vivid depictions of colonial society, the story captures the tensions and transformations that shaped the French presence in India.
