Set in the Indian subcontinent during the era of British colonization, the novel interweaves the lives of Hindu and English characters in a hostile environment.

The work was originally published in 1937 under the title The Rains Came. This Spanish edition, from 1986, is part of the Novela y Ocio collection and corresponds to volume 1.
For readers of classic and historical fiction interested in colonial India and in relations between cultures.
Louis Bromfield was an American writer and conservationist. A bestselling novelist in the 1920s, he reinvented himself as a farmer in the late 1930s and became one of the earliest proponents of sustainable and organic agriculture in the United States. He won the Pulitzer Prize for the Novel in 1927 for Early Autumn, founded the experimental Malabar Farm near Mansfield, Ohio, and played an important role in the early environmental movement.
