Taj an unforgettable epic of love and war, power and passion set against the panoramic background of seventeenth century India, from the snowcapped mountains of Kashmir to the deserts of the Deccan.Colin de Silva has written a compelling, exotic and dramatic saga that surpasses his earlier bestsellers, the Sinhala quartet. It is the moving story of the love of the Moghul emperor Shah Jahan for his wife Mumtaz, in whose memory he created the exquisite Taj Mahal, the Eighth Wonder of the World.It is also the story of ambition, greed and lust for power sons against fathers, Muslim Moghuls against Hindu Rajputs, scheming adventuress against devoted bride. There are scenes of incredible magnificence, jewels so heavy their wearer has to be supported to his throne, fountains of perfume, rivers of wine. In contrast there is widespread degradation, poverty, and slaughter on battlefields where contenders vie for vast wealth and supreme power.The passions, intrigues and treachery of the Moghul court, its jewelled splendour, its love of poetry and its legendary architecture, contrasting with the devastation of battle, are brought to vibrant life in this rich and colourful novel.
