Idols In The Heart: A Tale is a novel written by A. L. O. E. and published in 1883. The story is set in India and follows the life of a young girl named Roshni who is born into a wealthy Hindu family. Roshni is brought up in a culture that is steeped in tradition and superstition, and is taught to worship idols as a way of pleasing the gods.As Roshni grows older, she becomes increasingly disillusioned with the empty rituals of her religion and begins to question her beliefs. She is drawn to the teachings of a Christian missionary who encourages her to seek a personal relationship with God. However, her family and community are fiercely opposed to Christianity and Roshni is forced to choose between her faith and her family.The novel explores themes of religious tolerance, cultural identity, and the struggle to reconcile tradition with modernity. It also highlights the challenges faced by those who choose to follow a different path from their family and community.Overall, Idols In The Heart: A Tale is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers insight into the complex cultural and religious landscape of India in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
