The Potter's Thumb, Vol. 3

By Flora Annie Steel

The Potter's Thumb V3 is a novel written by Flora Annie Webster Steel. It is the third book in the Potter's Thumb series. The story takes place in India during the British Raj era and follows the life of a young girl named Bisesa. Bisesa is the daughter of a potter and has a unique ability to shape clay with her thumb. She becomes a famous potter and gains the attention of the British officials in India. The novel explores the cultural clashes between the British and Indian communities, as well as the struggles of women in Indian society. The Potter's Thumb V3 is a compelling story of love, betrayal, and redemption set against the backdrop of colonial India.In fact, like many another woman of her type--many a man also--Gwen Boynton had taken refuge from the greater remorse in the lesser one--if indeed there was a greater one?--if indeed the real limit of her sinning had not been that over-confidence to which she had confessed. Not in detail truly; still she had confessed it with tears to Dan, and he had forgiven her en masse; as, no doubt, he would forgive in detail if she had thought it right to tell him what she had told George. But what right had she to put this pain into another man's life, or speak of that vague fear which even Ch�����ndni's confession of having stolen the key would not smother utterly?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
