Synopsis

Lady of the Lotus takes the reader to another time, another place: India, centuries before Christ. It is the story of a woman who discovers that the man she loves is destined for a path which will ultimately lead him away from her, toward a great destiny...the story of a woman who courageously seeks - and finds - a path of her own. It is a novel of love, a passionate saga of spiritual quest, a beautifully detailed portrait of an ancient civilization, and a novel which reveals the unsung human dimension of a legendary figure: Yaśodhara, wife of Siddhartha, Gautama Buddha.
