En 1605, sur une île déserte du delta du Gange, un jeune brahmane, abandonné par ses compagnons de voyage, va être sacrifié sur l'autel d'une terrible déesse par un ascète tantrique dévoyé. Sauvé par la fille adoptive du renonçant, qu'il épouse, il rencontre chemin faisant sa première femme, qu'il avait dû quitter, parce qu'elle s'était convertie à l'islam. Le récit se déplace alors à la cour d'Agra dans les derniers jours du règne de l'empereur moghol Akbar. Intrigues et amours se succèdent jusqu'au dénouement tragique dans les flots du fleuve. Le grand auteur bengali (1838-1894) écrit ici un de ses meilleurs romans, que dominent les figures de deux femmes exceptionnelles

"Having monopolized Central Asian politics and culture for over a century, the Timurid ruling elite was forced from its ancestral homeland in Transoxiana at the turn of the sixteenth century by an invading Uzbek tribal confederation. The Timurids travelled south: establishing themselves as the new rulers of a region roughly comprising modern Afghanistan, Pakistan and northern India, and founding what would become the Mughal Empire (1526-1857). The last survivors of the House of Timur, the Mughals drew invaluable political capital from their lineage, which was recognized for its charismatic genealogy and court culture - the features of which are examined here. By identifying Mughal loyalty to Turco-Mongol institutions and traditions, Lisa Balabanlilar here positions the Mughal dynasty at the centre of the early modern Islamic world as the direct successors of a powerful political and religious tradition."--
