An English aristocrat by birth, Ashton was raised by a simple Indian woman, Sita, and considered himself an Indian. He always believed that happiness awaited him in a green valley beyond the snow-capped mountains called Dur-Haima, which means Distant Tents. However, before her death, Sita admits that she is not his real mother and that in fact he is English. The boy is sent to England to receive a decent education. After graduating from a prestigious military academy, Ashton returns to India in the hope of making a decent career and meeting old friends. However, after some time, the young man understands: he never became an Englishman, but the people of India do not consider him one of their own. As part of his duty, Ash accompanies two Indian princesses to the principality where their wedding is to take place. And during this long journey, he falls in love with one of the princesses, Anjali, and although she reciprocates his feelings, the lovers understand that they will never be together. It seemed that they would be separated forever, but events begin to develop in the most unpredictable way... “The Distant Tents” is one of the greatest literary sagas of our time, ranking alongside such masterpieces as “Gone with the Wind” by Margaret Mitchell and “The Thorn Birds” by Colin McCullough.
