B. M. Croker
A Bird of Passage
B. M. Croker’s "A Bird of Passage" is a captivating Anglo-Indian romance that follows Isabel Fotheringham, a young woman forced to migrate from England to the complex social world of the British Raj. Arriving in India as a poor relation, Isabel is thrust into the glittering yet cruel hierarchy of British society in Calcutta. Her position as an outsider subjects her to relentless scrutiny in a mercenary marriage market where a single misstep can mean ruin.
Isabel’s journey is one of quiet resilience and intelligence as she navigates this world of strict convention, catty rivals, and formidable matrons. Croker, writing with authentic detail from her life in India, immerses the reader in the sights and sensations of the Raj, from bustling bazaars to serene hill stations. The heart of the novel is Isabel's search for a love based on genuine affection rather than calculation, and her struggle to find a place to belong. This is a timeless and engrossing tale of one woman's quest for independence and happiness against all odds.
