Synopsis of The Glass Palace
Ambientada en Birmania durante la invasión británica de 1885, esta novela magistral de Amitav Ghosh cuenta la historia de Rajkumar, un joven pobre que se ve arrastrado por las mareas del caos político y social, y que llega a crear un imperio en la selva de teca birmana. A través de un amplio elenco de personajes, Ghosh explora las tensiones entre birmanos, indios y británicos, así como las fortunas de las plantaciones de caucho en Malasia y los negocios en Singapur. La historia sigue a la familia extendida desde 1870 hasta los años de la posguerra, con destinos que se dispersan por Nueva York, Tailandia, Londres y Hong Kong.
