Rama's Labyrinth: A Biographical Novel

"Wagner-Wright's novel is an informative exploration of one of history's many forgotten heroines." - Kirkus

"... a thoroughly convincing dramatic take on a strand of Indian history rarely touched on in fiction." - Historical Novel Society

Born in British India to an itinerant Sanskrit scholar, Rama defied social boundaries to recite the sacred legends. Eventually, she appeared before a panel of experts in British Calcutta, earned the title Pandita, and became a public lecturer until she married. As a widow, Rama returned to her profession before traveling to England for further education at Cheltenham. While there, Rama accepted Christian baptism. Rama continued on to America where she raised funds for her still-existing ashram near Pune, India.

Rama's Labyrinth is the true inspirational story of one woman's quest for self-discovery and spiritual growth.
