About the product The novel, which has become an absolute bestseller. Reese Witherspoon’s book club choice. The life that you painstakingly build can be in jeopardy at any moment. Lakshmi knows this very well. She was married at fifteen, and at seventeen she ran away from her unloved husband and ended up in Jaipur, the Pink City, majestic and merciless. A city where you can get rich very quickly and lose everything just as quickly. Lakshmi really needs to get rich, because her dream is not to depend on anyone. Her talents know no bounds, but the main thing is that she is a healer and artist, and in this she has achieved perfection. Her mehendi are famous throughout the city, noble ladies are ready to pay generously for her healing decoctions and magical henna patterns. It would seem that the goal is close. But Jaipur does not forgive mistakes. «This book did not let me go from the first page to the last.» Reese Witherspoon «The desire of women to change their lives and earn their talents is a key theme in Joshi’s novel.» Historical Novel Society «Joshi has masterfully transported into the past and created a fascinating story with a vivid heroine, for whom you support with all your heart.» Booklist.
