Laurence Hope — the pen name of Adela Florence Nicolson — wrote some of the most passionately romantic verse of the late Victorian era. India’s Love Lyrics draws on her years in India, blending sensuous imagery with an intense, elegiac longing that captivated readers on both sides of the Atlantic when it was published in 1902.
Several poems from this collection were set to music and became popular parlour songs. This free EPUB presents the lyrics in clean, properly lineated verse, ready to read on any device.
