The Golden Threshold (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162696034)

The Golden Threshold is a collection of poems written by Sarojini Naidu, an Indian poet, and political activist. The book was first published in 1905 and has since become a classic of Indian literature. The poems in the collection are written in a lyrical and romantic style, often drawing on themes of love, nature, and spirituality. Many of the poems also reflect Naidu's political activism, particularly her work in the Indian independence movement. The title of the book comes from a poem of the same name, which describes a threshold between the material world and the spiritual realm. Overall, The Golden Threshold is a powerful and evocative collection of poetry that offers a glimpse into the rich cultural and literary heritage of India.Whither dost thou hide from the magic of my flute-call? In what moonlight-tangled meshes of perfume, Where the clustering keovas guard the squirrel's slumber, Where the deep woods glimmer with the jasmine's bloom?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
