The final collection of Adela Florence Nicolson, who wrote as Laurence Hope, opens with a dedication to her late husband, General Malcolm Nicolson. Like her earlier books it presents itself as love poetry from India: the lament of a dancing girl, a bride, rice fields and coral trees, desire, memory and loss, written in an intense, musical English.
