«Un jardín en Badalpur» is the historical fiction novel by Kenizé Mourad, published by Del Taller de Mario Muchnik in paperback (464 pages, in Spanish).
Zahr, a young woman born and educated in France, discovers that her father is Amir, rajah of Badalpur. After his death, she travels to India to claim the Garden of the Sultana, the plot that Amir gave to her mother Selma. The novel interweaves that personal quest with an India shaken by the Hindu-Muslim conflict and discrimination against women.
Published in 1998, the novel continues the story of «De parte de la princesa muerta» and is translated from French by Esther Benítez.
For readers of contemporary fiction interested in India, its society and its cultural heritage.
