Review Corner | The Twentieth Wife
I thought based on the premise, that it would be an interesting novel to read. Harems, court politics and political intrigue have always fascinated me — I have read several light novels (say like The Apothecary Diaries) set in China and Japan to that effect where women take charge of the narrative and spin their destinies to Asian-set fantasies involving strategies and gods (such as Strike The Zither and Daughter of the Moon Goddess).
If you don’t know what I am talking about, the following is the description of the book from Goodreads.
Goodreads Description
An enchanting seventeenth-century epic of grand passion and adventure, this debut novel tells the captivating story of one of India’s most legendary and controversial empresses — a woman whose brilliance and determination trumped myriad obstacles, and whose love shaped the course of the Mughal empire.
She came into the world in the year 1577, to the howling accompaniment of a ferocious winter storm. As the daughter of starving refugees fleeing violent persecution in Persia, her fateful birth in a roadside tent sparked a miraculous reversal of family fortune, culminating in her father’s introduction to the court of Emperor Akbar. She is called Mehrunnisa, the Sun of Women. This is her story.
Growing up on the fringes of Emperor Akbar’s opulent palace grounds, Mehrunnisa blossoms into a sapphire-eyed child blessed with a precocious intelligence, luminous beauty, and a powerful ambition far surpassing the bounds of her family’s station. Mehrunnisa first encounters young Prince Salim on his wedding day. In that instant, even as a royal gala swirls around her in celebration of the future emperor’s first marriage, Mehrunnisa foresees the path of her own destiny. One day, she decides with uncompromising surety, she too will become Salim’s wife. She is all of eight years old — and wholly unaware of the great price she and her family will pay for this dream.
Skillfully blending the textures of historical reality with the rich and sensuous imaginings of a timeless fairy tale, The Twentieth Wife sweeps readers up in the emotional pageant of Salim and Mehrunnisa’s embattled love. First-time novelist Indu Sundaresan charts her heroine’s enthralling journey across the years, from an ill-fated first marriage through motherhood and into a dangerous maze of power struggles and political machinations. Through it all, Mehrunnisa and Salim long with fiery intensity for the true, redemptive love they’ve never known — and their mutual quest ultimately takes them, and the vast empire that hangs in the balance, to places they never dreamed possible.
Shot through with wonder and suspense, The Twentieth Wife is at once a fascinating portrait of one woman’s convention-defying life behind the veil and a transporting saga of the astonishing potency of love.
My Review
But what do I even say…
Two of the worst people you know fall in love based on 3–4 meetings. A son who poison’s his dad, a daughter who eyes the throne first before the man seated in it, their unrivaled obsession with each other without any actual substance like they have a proper conversation for the first time after like 20 years of pining- leading to intentionally or not, many people’s death.
I think history conveniently forgets to teach us that these so called Great Emperors were often terrible people. Maybe I expected more from the Jahangir written in the book — but it was certainly not this — hero material. In here, I am criticizing the characters of the novel — maybe Mehrunnisa didn’t actually love Salim but actually coveted the throne? That may have created a much more impactful story line — because honest to god, their love was not at all convincing.
I have to grudgingly give credit where due as well — the author has indeed relied on historical accounts, decorated with her imagination — but for a novel — I felt I could not understand why Mehrunnisa and Salim loved each other — they barely knew each other and even if we categorize her interest in him to be love (and craving for power in a world where women didn’t have any) he barely looked at her 4 times — and purely out of lust. Literally till the last moment — he just wanted to possess her. It felt as if the author lined out all the historical events we knew — and then tried to fill in gaps — create justifications for actions resulting in a colorful patchwork where I could tell which aspects were derived from history and which were not — breaking the illusion of the novel.
While this could be true — in the sense of history — the characters ended up unlikable. Not much fault can be rested in the author in that sense.
But if I have to read about — ‘breasts heaving’, ‘trimmed waist’, ‘looked as young as the day of marriage’ — even in novels set in serious historical backdrops, I will no doubt harm a book or someone.

What about marriage? Is a civil wedding ceremony required by God?
×What is marriage?
*The Bible definition and description of marriage hasn’t changed in over 3500 years since Moses received revelation and commandment from God. But, mankind has changed many opinions, practices, and traditions about marriage during that time. Sometimes, it’s a good idea to go back to the Bible and see what it says.
*I used to think a signed civil marriage certificate was required for a marriage to be acceptable to God. I used to think anyone living in a “marriage relationship” without a signed civil marriage certificate was living in sin. And, in early 20th century heartland America, maybe that might have been kind of true in a way.
*But, then real life intruded on my naive thinking…
*I know a dear Hindu couple who met each other, fell in love, got engaged, and were married in San Jose. Since they were devout Hindus, they had both a California civil wedding and a traditional Hindu religious wedding. Then they flew to Germany, where they each had dual German/Indian citizenship, for a German civil wedding and a Hindu religious wedding in the Hindu community that had been their home before immigrating to the USA. Then they flew to their native India for a civil wedding ceremony and then they drove to her hometown for a Hindu religious wedding ceremony with her family and drove to his hometown for a Hindu religious wedding ceremony with his family. Seven weddings!
*I feel like the Sadducees, who tempted Jesus Christ with the question about the woman with seven husbands (Matthew 22; Mark 12; Luke 20), when I ask, “Which wedding made them married in God’s eyes?” I’m sure Jesus Christ would answer this question just like he answered their question.
•Jesus replied, “Your mistake is that you don’t know the Scriptures, and you don’t know the power of God.
-Matthew 22:29
*Which wedding did Jesus describe as “joined together by God”?
•Some Pharisees came to test him. They asked, “Can a husband divorce his wife?” Jesus answered them, “What command did Moses give you?” They said, “Moses allowed a man to give his wife a written notice to divorce her.” Jesus said to them, “He wrote this command for you because you’re heartless. But God made them male and female in the beginning, at creation. That’s why a man will leave his father and mother and will remain united with his wife, and the two will be one. So they are no longer two but one. Therefore, don’t let anyone separate what God has joined together.”
-Mark 10:2-9 GWT
*Which wedding did Isaac and Rebekah have?
•Isaac took her into his mother Sarah’s tent. He married Rebekah. She became his wife, and he loved her. So Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death.
-Genesis 24:67 GWT
*Which wedding was the Apostle Paul describing?
•So I don’t want you to have any concerns. An unmarried man is concerned about the things of the Lord, [that is,] about how he can please the Lord. But the married man is concerned about earthly things, [that is,] about how he can please his wife. His attention is divided. An unmarried woman or a virgin is concerned about the Lord’s things so that she may be holy in body and in spirit. But the married woman is concerned about earthly things, [that is,] about how she can please her husband.
-1 Corinthians 7:32-34 GWT
*Maybe the wedding that God accepts is the one that is used as an allegory for the relationship of the Lord Jesus Christ with his bride…
•Husbands, love your wives as Christ loved the church and gave his life for it. He did this to make the church holy by cleansing it, washing it using water along with spoken words. Then he could present it to himself as a glorious church, without any kind of stain or wrinkle-holy and without faults. So husbands must love their wives as they love their own bodies. A man who loves his wife loves himself. No one ever hated his own body. Instead, he feeds and takes care of it, as Christ takes care of the church. We are parts of his body. That’s why a man will leave his father and mother and be united with his wife, and the two will be one. This is a great mystery. (I’m talking about Christ’s relationship to the church.) But every husband must love his wife as he loves himself, and wives should respect their husbands.
-Ephesians 5:25-33 GWT
*Christians have always answered to a higher authority on matters of morality, ethics, honesty, charity, and love than the laws of the land. Maybe this is true of marriage. Maybe Christian marriage answers to a higher authority than a civil marriage certificate.
•In the same way let your light shine in front of people. Then they will see the good that you do and praise your Father in heaven.
-Matthew 5:16
•Dear friends, I warn you as “temporary residents and foreigners” to keep away from worldly desires that wage war against your very souls. Be careful to live properly among your unbelieving neighbors. Then even if they accuse you of doing wrong, they will see your honorable behavior, and they will give honor to God when he judges the world.
-1 Peter 2:11-12 NLT
*This kind of marriage requires a permanent commitment. It is not to be entered on a whim, it is not to be taken lightly, and it is not to be dissolved at will…
•So the LORD God caused him to fall into a deep sleep. While the man was sleeping, the LORD God took out one of the man’s ribs and closed up the flesh at that place. Then the LORD God formed a woman from the rib that he had taken from the man. He brought her to the man. The man said, “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh. She will be named [woman] because she was taken from man.” That is why a man will leave his father and mother and will be united with his wife, and they will become one flesh. The man and his wife were both naked, but they weren’t ashamed of it.
-Genesis 2:21-25 GWT
•Wives, in a similar way, place yourselves under your husbands’ authority. Some husbands may not obey God’s word. Their wives could win these men [for Christ] by the way they live without saying anything. Their husbands would see how pure and reverent their lives are. Wives must not let their beauty be something external. Beauty doesn’t come from hairstyles, gold jewelry, or clothes. Rather, beauty is something internal that can’t be destroyed. Beauty expresses itself in a gentle and quiet attitude which God considers precious. After all, this is how holy women who had confidence in God expressed their beauty in the past. They placed themselves under their husband’s authority as Sarah did. Sarah obeyed Abraham and spoke to him respectfully. You became Sarah’s daughters by not letting anything make you afraid to do good.
-1 Peter 3:1-6 GWT
•Husbands, in a similar way, live with your wives with understanding since they are weaker than you are. Honor your wives as those who share God’s life-giving kindness so that nothing will interfere with your prayers.
-1 Peter 3:7 GWT
•Don’t you realize, brothers and sisters, that laws have power over people only as long as they are alive? (I’m speaking to people who are familiar with Moses’ Teachings.) For example, a married woman is bound by law to her husband as long as he is alive. But if her husband dies, that marriage law is no longer in effect for her. So if she marries another man while her husband is still alive, she will be called an adulterer. But if her husband dies, she is free from this law, so she is not committing adultery if she marries another man.
-Romans 7:1-3 GWT
•Marriage is honorable in every way, so husbands and wives should be faithful to each other. God will judge those who commit sexual sins, especially those who commit adultery.
-Hebrews 13:4 GWT
*Disobeying God by trifling with the marriage relationship is serious…
•Someone may say, “I’m allowed to do anything,” but not everything is helpful. I’m allowed to do anything, but I won’t allow anything to gain control over my life. Food is for the stomach, and the stomach is for food, but God will put an end to both of them. However, the body is not for sexual sin but for the Lord, and the Lord is for the body. God raised the Lord, and by his power God will also raise us. Don’t you realize that your bodies are parts of Christ’s body? Should I take the parts of Christ’s body and make them parts of a prostitute’s body? That’s unthinkable! Don’t you realize that the person who unites himself with a prostitute becomes one body with her? God says, “The two will be one.” However, the person who unites himself with the Lord becomes one spirit with him.
-1 Corinthians 6:12-17 GWT
•Stay away from sexual sins. Other sins that people commit don’t affect their bodies the same way sexual sins do. People who sin sexually sin against their own bodies. Don’t you know that your body is a temple that belongs to the Holy Spirit? The Holy Spirit, whom you received from God, lives in you. You don’t belong to yourselves. You were bought for a price. So bring glory to God in the way you use your body.
-1 Corinthians 6:18-20 GWT
•There are many believers, especially converts from Judaism, who are rebellious. They speak nonsense and deceive people. They must be silenced because they are ruining whole families by teaching what they shouldn’t teach. This is the shameful way they make money. Even one of their own prophets said, “Cretans are always liars, savage animals, and lazy gluttons.” That statement is true. For this reason, sharply correct believers so that they continue to have faith that is alive and well. They shouldn’t pay attention to Jewish myths or commands given by people who are always rejecting the truth. Everything is clean to those who are clean. But nothing is clean to corrupt unbelievers. Indeed, their minds and their consciences are corrupted. They claim to know God, but they deny him by what they do. They are detestable, disobedient, and unfit to do anything good.
-Titus 1:10-16 GWT
•If anyone doesn’t take care of his own relatives, especially his immediate family, he has denied the Christian faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
-1 Timothy 5:8 GWT

As time handed on and we started to make use of different resources much more like oil, we began to neglect about hemp. Legal guidelines have been passed that allowed people to legally not should develop hemp. Then when individuals started understanding how helpful it was as soon as once more around 1930, it was taken out with the sunshine by a greedy man. This man’s title was William Randolph Hearst, and he owned the overwhelming majority with the newspapers throughout the United States. When he heard of this new phenomenon of hemp, he was not comfortable. This was simply because he had all of his newspaper mills already arrange as tree paper. Since he didn’t wish to cope with the prices of establishing a brand new set of hemp mills, he started publishing false stories all all through his newspapers across the nations associating hemp with marijuana as if it have been an evil drug.

Why is it so fascinating to the world of neurological disorders? CBD has been shown to have vital antioxidant and neuroprotective properties, suggesting that it may very well be a possible treatment for neurological disorders. While CBD shouldn't be yet FDA-accredited for any situation, many research and person testimonies have proven promising outcomes for quite a lot of indications. I used to deal with a scholar with a really aggressive seizure disorder. It was so aggressive, I couldn’t turn the lights on or off in our room while she was there or it could trigger a grand mal seizure. I was speaking to her mother on the phone about her progress at some point and she confided in me that she’d began using hemp oil, rubbing it on her daughter at evening, and that she hadn’t had a seizure since. I used to be happy to listen to. I believe there’s a stigma hooked up to hemp products, which is why her mother instructed me in confidence.

Get 'The Sometimes Daughter' on OFFER for a Limited Time Only!
Here: https://www.bookzio.com/the-sometimes-daughter/
The acclaimed author of Prayers and Lies explores the complex bond between a daughter and her errant mother in this poignant, beautifully written novel. Judy Webster is born in a mud-splattered tent at Woodstock, just as Crosby, Stills, and Nash take the stage. Her mother, Cassie, is a beautiful, flawed flower-child who brings her little girl to anti-war protests and parties rather than enroll her in preschool. But as Cassie’s husband, Kirk, gradually abandons 1960s ideals in favor of a steady home and a law degree, their once idyllic marriage crumbles. Dragging Judy back from the Kentucky commune where Cassie has taken her, Kirk files for divorce and is awarded custody. When Cassie eventually moves to an ashram in India, Judy is grief-stricken. At school, she constructs lies to explain her unconventional home-life, trying desperately to fit into the world her mother has rejected. As Judy starts to grow up and grapples with her father’s remarriage and her own reckless urges, she encounters all the joy and heartbreak that goes with first love, first loss, sex, drugs, and self-discovery. And when Cassie comes home again, Judy must ultimately decide what role she’s willing to allow her mother to play in her life . . . “Emmons has a keen grasp of the difficulties of mother-daughter dynamics, and the specific struggles of young parents who are still figuring themselves out. She also paints . . . a vivid, expansive background for an intimate story.” —Publishers Weekly

The Man Who Told the Future
by Pico Iyer
Kristin and I were scuffling around the back streets of Kathmandu on a lazy November afternoon. We’d already gone to the zoo that day, and been unsettled to see a brown bear clutching at the bars of his cage, wailing piteously. We’d trudged around the National Museum, where every artifact of the King’s life was recorded, with particular reference to “The Royal Babyhood.” We’d passed an early evening amongst the spires of Durbar Square, watching bright-eyed boys play Carom while their elder brothers brushed against us in their jackets, muttering, “Brown sugar, white sugar, coke, smack, dope.”
But now the afternoon was yawning ahead of us and we didn’t know what to do. It was a rare opportunity for shared sight-seeing: Kristin was accustomed to heading out every night at 10 p.m., reeling through the pubs and bars of the old city, being chatted up by self-styled mystics before fumbling back to our tiny room in the Hotel Eden as the light was coming through the frosty windows. I’d take off, a little later, into the heavy mist, notebook in hand, to record the bearded sages who sat along the streets peddling every brand of cross-cultural wisdom. She was collecting experience, we liked to think, I was collecting evidence.
We’d met in New York City eight months before and, on a wild impulse, had decided that Kristin should join me on the last stop of a four-month tour through Asia that I was planning to take. She had a charming boyfriend back on East 3rd Street, and I was romancing my notebook, so it felt more than safe as we settled into our sixth-floor room on Freak Street.
I opened my Lonely Planet guide — my companion through all the countries I’d visited — and pointed out to her one item that had long intrigued me. There, tucked among long lists of trekking agencies and meditation centers, explanations of living goddesses, and reviews of apple-pie emporia, was the single most startling entry I had seen in such a work: “The Royal Astrologer.” For a price, the write-up said, this mage who consulted with the palace on even its most important decisions — When was the right day to pass some edict? Which time boded well for a royal birth? — was available to anyone who wished to see him.
How could either of us resist?
I had grown up in England, among little boys at boarding school who defined ourselves by everything we imagined we could see through. By day, we committed to memory the lines of Xenophon and Caesar; by night, we proved ourselves “superior” to everyone around us with cascades of fluency and quasi-sophisticated airs we’d borrowed from our books.
Three times a year, I left my all-male internment camp and flew back to my parents’ home in California. There, in a blindingly yellow house perched above the clouds, my father was reading the palm of every stranger who visited, talking of Aquarian precessions and the “Ascended Masters of the Himalayas.” His students, graduates of the Summer of Love, were attuned to psychic vibrations, auras, and verses from the Bhagavad Gita, but I wasn’t sure they’d recognise real life if it punched them in the face.
What better environment for producing someone who loudly announced he believed in nothing?
Kristin, however, had never given up on magic. She was five years younger than I — twenty-three to my twenty-eight — and she had a powerful belief in herself (or some parts of herself), matched only by her conviction that life would reward that faith.
One time, she’d come to my office, on the twenty-fifth floor of Rockefeller Center, and I’d pulled out a backgammon set. I was one throw from victory, and the only way she could defeat me was by throwing a double six. She closed her eyes, she shook the dice again and again between her hot palms, she muttered something nonsensical, and then she sent the dice clattering across the board.
One stopped rolling, and disclosed a six. The other came at last to rest: another six.
Now, as we tried to follow the runic instructions to the Astrologer — what true sage would allow himself to be listed in a Lonely Planet guide, I wondered? — we found ourselves passing through empty courtyards and along a scribble of narrow lanes. We were directed toward a golden temple, and then through another maze of darkened backstreets, and then led out into an open space where a ladder brought us up to a second-floor redoubt.
When the Royal Astrologer greeted us with a business card listing his doctorate and his work for NASA, my every doubt was confirmed.
Still, I was sure I could get a good story out of this, so we agreed on neither the priciest of his readings, nor the cheapest. We padded off to while away the hours before he could give us his verdicts, and settled into one of those Kathmandu cafés that might have doubled as Ali Baba’s cave.
Nepal in those days was budget time-travel to all the revolutions we were too young to have experienced firsthand. Pillows and cushions were scattered across the floor of this (as of many a) café, and a swirl of peasant-skirt bedspreads turned the space into a kind of magic tent. A creaky cassette of “The Golden Road of Unlimited Devotion” unspooled blearily on the sound system, and any number of mushroom enchiladas and “secret recipe” lasagnas on the menu promised transport of a more mysterious kind.
Travel, for me, had always been a testing of the waters. Every journey is a leap of faith, of course, a venture, ideally, into the unknown. But for me a large part of the point of encountering the Other was to see what and how much to believe in. Every stranger approaching me with a smile posed a challenge of trust — and asked, silently, how much I could be trusted, too. Something was at stake in nearly every transaction, I felt, and it was as essential as whether you believed the world made sense or not.
Kristin and I had met when she, a former student of my father’s, had read a cover story I’d written on the Colombian drug trade. She dreamed of being a writer, though for now, just out of college, she was working as a temp in a succession of Manhattan offices, deploying her capacity for typing at a furious speed. I had similar dreams, though for the time being I was cranking out long articles every week on world affairs for Time magazine, drawn from the reports of colleagues in the field. The explosion of demonstrations that was convulsing apartheid-stricken South Africa, the manoeuverings preceding the Mexican election, the gas leak in Bhopal: I covered them all with the assurance of one who had never seen the places I was describing.
In the warm summer evenings, the two of us met often in the gardens of tiny cafés in the East Village, and she showed me the story she’d just written about Desirée, an Indonesian bride arriving in America. I told her of the book I was going to write on Asia. We swapped our latest discoveries from James Salter or Don De Lillo, and she told me of her girlhood adventures growing up in India and Japan and Spain (her father a spy under deepest cover).
By the time we headed out into the streets again, dusk was beginning to fall over the Nepali capital, turning it into fairy-tale enchantment once more. Oil lamps and flickering candles came on in the disheveled storefronts and faces peered out at us, almost invisible save for their eyes. We slipped and lurched across the uneven, potholed paths, the silhouetted spires of temples all around us. The noise and the crowds of the big city seemed to fade away, and we were in a medieval kingdom at its prime.
As we climbed the stairs back to the Royal Astrologer’s chamber, we might have been stumbling into an emergency room after an earthquake. Half of Nepal was there, so it seemed, shivering in the near-dark as everyone waited for his or her fortune. A family wondering when to take its newborn to the temple, and how to name him; a nervous couple thinking about auspicious marriage dates.
Quite often, a sudden thump at the door announced an urgent messenger — from the palace perhaps? The Royal Astrologer handed out futures as easily as a doctor might, and the people who left his room were seldom the same as when they came in.
Finally, he summoned us closer and pored over the charts he’d drawn up from our times and places of birth.
“So,” he said, turning to Kristin — she craned forward, taut with attention — “generally, I have found that you have a special talent.” She braced herself. “This gift you have is for social work.”
I’d never seen my friend look so crushed.
“Does it say anything about creative work, an imaginative life?”
He looked again at the circle with all the partitions and said, “Your talent is for social work.”
She didn’t say a word at first. “Nothing about writing, then?”
He shook his head.
When it came to my turn, I worried it might prove awkward once he confirmed my future as a ground-breaking writer after what he’d said to my friend.
“So,” he said, looking down, “generally I have found that your strength is diligence.”
“Diligence?”
He pointed out the calculations and quadrants that confirmed this.
“‘Diligence’ in the sense of doing one’s duty?”
“Yes,” he said, and began explaining every scribble, but to someone who was no longer listening.
I knew that diligence was the quality that the Buddha had urged on his disciples in his final breath. But the Royal Astrologer wasn’t a Buddhist, and nor was I. To me, the word smacked of Boy Scout badges and “to do” lists.
“I think,” he went on, perhaps sensing our disappointment, “that every month, on the day of the full moon, you should meditate for an hour. And eat no meat all day.”
This sounded like the kind of thing my father would say. He’d been a vegetarian all his life and was full of talk of the virtues of stilling the mind and fasting so as to access a deeper wisdom.
I negotiated the sage down to fifteen minutes a month and a day without meat, and we filed out.
My four months wandering amidst the conundrums of Asia changed my life more irreversibly than I could have imagined. I went to California to write up my adventures, and when my seven-month leave of absence was over, and I returned to New York City, I knew I could never survive in an office now that I had such a rich sense of how the world could stretch my sense of possibility in every direction. While writing up my droll account of the magicians of Kathmandu — and the others I’d met across the continent — I’d remembered to keep an eye out for the full moon and had sat still for a few minutes once a month, restricting myself for one day every thirty to Panang vegetable curries.
It hadn’t seemed to hurt.
So now I served notice to my bosses at Time, packed up my things in the elegant office overlooking another 50th Street high-rise, emptied my eleventh-floor apartment on Park Avenue South, and moved to a small room on the backstreets of Kyoto without toilet or telephone or, truth be told, visible bed.
As I was settling into my cell, on my twentieth week in Japan, I found a letter in my mailbox downstairs. It was from Kristin, in New York. Her father had died suddenly the previous year, she told me. She’d been distraught, hadn’t known where to turn or how to get her longing out, so she’d taken to her desk.
Every night, while everyone around her slept, she’d typed — and typed and typed. When her novel was finished, she’d sent it out to publishers. Within hours, Random House had signed her up for a six-figure sum, and by now rights had been sold in a dozen countries around the world; she and her friends were spinning a globe as the number mounted.
At twenty-six, she seemed assured of a glorious future. She’d rolled a double six again.
A few weeks later, I walked, as I did every Wednesday afternoon, to the little shop across from Kyoto University that stocked a few foreign magazines. It was my one tiny moment of connection with the world I had abandoned. I forked over 700 yen, collected the week’s edition of Time magazine and consulted it, as I always did, while ambling back through the quiet, sunlit lanes to my tiny room.
As I was paging through the magazine, from the back, something caught the edge of my gaze that looked like a misprint — or, more likely, a projection of an over-eager imagination. There, in the Books pages, was a picture of someone who looked a bit like me — or, rather, like me in my previous life, in button-down shirt and striped tie.
I knew the magazine was eager never to take notice of books written by its staff — even former members of the staff — but I looked again and there, among the eminences, was a small, friendly review of my book about whirlwinding across Asia, accompanied by a visa-sized picture. I had any number of other projects I’d been chafing to complete, and now, I felt, I could try to be a writer at last.
“Diligence” and “social work” indeed! The Royal Astrologer didn’t know a thing.
That was half a lifetime ago, almost to the day, and more than a hundred seasons have passed. A few years after our visit, the palace in Kathmandu was torn apart by a crazy massacre and I had no doubt that the Royal Astrologer was no longer in service (if only because he would have been in trouble if he had predicted such a bloody coup — or if he hadn’t. Telling futures for the powerful has never been a reliable source of income).
As for Kristin, her path of double sixes had continued, almost impossibly, for quite a while. Her boyfriend in the Village, like so many, was a committed Star Trek fan and, like thousands of Trekkies, no doubt, had sent in a script on spec to the program’s showrunners in Hollywood.
Unlike most such fans, though, he’d seen his script accepted. He’d been flown out to L.A. and offered a full-time job with the program. He’d taken up a big house with Kristin in the Hollywood Hills, a chief architect of the universe he’d once worshipped from afar.
Few couples of my acquaintance had found such lustrous futures in their twenties. When I visited, Kristin and her beau seemed to have exceeded anything they might have hoped for, with their Spanish-style villa above the canyons, the red, open-top sports car, publishers and TV executives waiting to turn their words into pictures.
But Kristin had always had a restless soul — perhaps the same soul that had brought her to Nepal and sent her out into the streets every evening — and somewhere along the way, in flight from stability but not sure exactly of what she wanted instead, she’d burned the life she’d found and lost it all. Now, in her early fifties, she lives alone with a beloved cat, tending to every lost animal, still writing, but in a world that doesn’t seem very interested in novels, especially from the not so young.
Her strongest quality, though, remains her fierce attachment to her friends. She lives through them and with them, the centres of her universe, and keeps up with pals from high school in Tokyo and Delhi on a sometimes daily basis. She sends me warm and mischievous messages on my birthday and remembers every last detail of 1985. As the years have passed without bringing all the adventures that once seemed inevitable, she tells me that the trip to Kathmandu was one of the highlights of her life.
And me? A couple of years after my first book came out, I sat in a car just under the yellow house above the clouds and watched a wildfire take it apart, every inch of it, so that everything I and my parents owned — not least the notes and outlines I’d drawn up for my next three books — was reduced to ash.
In any case, I’d fallen under the spell of Japan and silence by then and decided to take on a wife and two kids, giving up my thoughts of becoming a writer, and simply turning out several articles a week to support an expanding household.
Writing, I’d seen, demands a ferocious, all-consuming commitment, a refusal to be distracted — or, sometimes, even to be responsible. That would never be my gift.
I smile when I hear people say that the young are too credulous, too open, too ready to be transformed. I and my school friends were so much the opposite. It was only travel — being propelled beyond the world we thought we knew and could anticipate — that stripped us of our petty certainties, our flimsy defences, our boyish confidence. It was only figures such as the Royal Astrologer who showed us that we didn’t know a thing.
We sit on opposite sides of the world now — Kristin essentially a model of social work, with the passionate attention she brings to her friends, while I steadily meet my daily deadlines, the very picture of diligence — and see that life has much wiser plans for us than we ever could have come up with. The only one who really was exercising a writer’s imagination, the kind that sees the future as easily as the past, was the well-meaning man I had mocked as he tried to nudge us toward a truer understanding of who we really are — and were.

Sinn Fein Surges in Irish Elections, Exit Polls Predict
Support for Sinn Fein, the former political wing of the Irish Republican Army, surged in Ireland’s national elections on Saturday, according to exit polls. Prime Minister Leo Varadkar’s party, in power since 2011, was weakened but the result left open the possibility that he could still hold onto his office.
If the exit polls prove accurate, the vote boiled down to a three-way tie in a three-way race between Sinn Fein, Mr. Varadkar’s Fine Gael party and the leading opposition party, Fianna Fail. This would give Sinn Fein a shot at joining the next coalition government.
A joint exit poll commissioned by The Irish Times and state broadcaster RTE showed Fine Gael at 22.4 percent, Sinn Fein at 22.3 percent and Fianna Fail at 22.2 percent.
Analysts said the center-left Sinn Fein was boosted by younger and urban voters angered by austerity policies implemented by successive Fianna Fail and Fine Gael governments following the 2008 financial crash. It capitalized on frustrations over housing and health care crises largely blamed on Mr. Varadkar’s party.
Still, this result would offer a political lifeline to Mr. Varadkar who had been expected to finish third.
It could be a mixed bag for Sinn Fein and its leader, Mary Lou McDonald. If the exit polls are correct, the party won its highest-ever share of the national vote. But it chose to run only 42 candidates for the 180-seat Parliament and may have been able to take an even greater share had it fielded more candidates.
“People think the government has taken a deliberate decision to favor landlords over house buyers and fair rents,” said Jane Suiter, a professor of media studies and politics at Dublin City University.
“Sinn Fein have been getting young progressives on board, people who think the number of homeless is morally bankrupt, and who feel they have been left at the mercy of landlords and vested interests, free to charge what rent they like because ordinary people can’t afford to buy,” Ms. Suiter added.
Ireland has been moving in an increasingly liberal direction in recent years. Referendums in 2015 and 2018 led to the legalization of marriage equality and abortion.
While both Fianna Fail and Mr. Varadkar’s party have vowed not to partner with Sinn Fein given its past support for violence, the center-left party could still emerge as a kingmaker and its ascension signals an appetite for a greater emphasis on social welfare after decades of dominance by the pro-market center-right.
Mr. Varadkar, who has led his party for only two and a half years, is Ireland’s first openly gay prime minister and the first with a non-European heritage. His father, a physician, is originally from India.
The exact shape of the next Parliament will take days to emerge, thanks to Ireland’s painstaking system of proportional representation, but it now seems likely that the contest for the premiership will be between Mr. Varadkar and Fianna Fail’s leader, Micheal Martin, with Ms. McDonald possibly playing the kingmaker role.
Mr. Varadkar campaigned on his government’s skillful handling of Brexit, in securing a deal with Prime Minister Boris Johnson that avoided a hard border with physical checks between the Irish Republic and Northern Ireland, and on presiding over a period of economic growth. But his success on the international stage was largely overshadowed by domestic crises and his party was seen as out of touch with everyday concerns.
Strict market-driven policies overseen by the housing minister, Eoghan Murphy, have been widely blamed for a housing shortage that has led to a decline in homeownership and a rise in rents and homelessness, particularly in Dublin, which was recently named one of the 10 most expensive cities in the world to rent.
Meanwhile, Ireland’s mixed public-private health system has been plagued by soaring costs, staff shortages and waiting lists that can sometimes stretch for years.
The ballooning costs of a proposed new national children’s hospital, which at its present price tag of 1.7 billion euros ($1.86 billion) would be one of the most expensive in the world, has also damaged the party’s reputation for financial management.
Mr. Varadkar’s party also faced several campaign setbacks.
Early last month, his justice minister was forced to back down on a proposal to commemorate police officers who died defending British rule during Ireland’s War of Independence a century ago.
His party also faced public outrage after a homeless man was severely injured when the tent in which he was sleeping was sucked into an industrial machine as it cleared a homeless encampment in wealthy south Dublin.
During the campaign, the social media operation of Fine Gael was widely seen as glib and ineffective, and Mr. Varadkar was criticized as detached and distant by some within his own party.
Fine Gael and Fianna Fail have taken turns in power since the modern state was founded in 1922 after they took different sides in a civil war. Both pledged during the campaign that they would not form a coalition with Sinn Fein because of its left-wing, high-spending social policies and its past support for the violent I.R.A. during the Northern Ireland Troubles from 1968 to 1998.
Sinn Fein, in turn, has said it will demand an immediate poll on the reunification of Ireland, north and south, as its price for joining any coalition, a policy likely to stir up tensions with London and with Northern Ireland’s unionist community.
Sinn Fein’s success came only seven months after a disastrous election for county and city councils, in which it dropped to less than 10 percent of national support and lost half of its seats.
Because of that recent drubbing, Sinn Fein chose to run a limited number of candidates, meaning it will likely miss out on several seats it would otherwise have taken thanks to the unexpected surge in support.
Ms. McDonald succeeded the veteran Belfast republican Gerry Adams — widely reported to have been a one-time chief of staff of the I.R.A., though he has always denied this — as president of Sinn Fein in 2018.
She is one of a number of younger southern-born Sinn Fein politicians who had no personal involvement in the northern Troubles, but who have gained reputations as formidable debaters and masters of policy.
If she were to emerge as the senior party leader in a coalition she would become the first female head of government in Ireland’s history, although two women — Mary Robinson and Mary McAleese — have already served as head of state, a largely ceremonial office.
Before the election, Mr. Varadkar said that if his party lost, he would seek to retain the leadership of Finn Gael as head of the opposition or as a junior partner in a coalition led by one of the other two largest parties.
However, he could face internal party unrest after leading such a lackluster election campaign, with opposition likely to crystallize around his deputy leader, the present foreign minister, Simon Coveney.

I know it would be expensive..but I would probably end up choosing only liability coverage.

For example, can high school marks play a factor? I've heard about something like this, although I don't know if it applies to our provincial policies. I know the other factors, such as having a 4 door used sedan, in-class driving course etc. can also help lower the cost. All help is appreciated, thanks!""

Now, in a different state, would that follow us? #3. If he were to get insurance, I was told, a driver can not get insurance unless their name is on the title? Any help is greatly appreciated!""

I have a 99 GST Turbo Convertible Eclipse Spyder that I bought a few years ago with a Rebuilt Salvage title. You would not even be able to tell that it was in an accident. It looks great. I have been putting a lot of money in the car fixing it up (making it look nice and faster) and one of my friends told me the other day that if something happened to my car I would get practically nothing since it has a Rebuilt Salvage title.

What insurance would take her?
Wife's best friend is a natural-born U.S. citizen and California resident for decades. She is 49 years old, single mother of a teenager, and has no health insurance. She has a rather large (presumably benign) tumor in her belly that makes her look 4 months pregnant. According to her research, it's a cystic fibrosis, a single lump at or near her reproductive organs. It's been growing for years and has not been diagnosed. In fact, she hasn't seen a doctor since about 1999. She knows that she'll need surgery and wants to get health insurance, but obviously has a pre-existing condition. There are high risk pools for that, but she's unsure how to proceed. Should she go to the doctor, get the tumor diagnosed and then try to get insurance? Should she try to get insurance, yet list her undiagnosed condition on the application in order to be denied? She doesn't make much money, but she knows there's no way around this. Any advice on how to proceed? Thank you.""
Argh! Insurance rates went up?
So my friend and I were out driving his car and when he got out at a store, I hopped in the driver's seat. I have a class 5 license, so it's all legal there. We weren't speeding or doing anything illegal, we had nothing to hide, so everything was legit. However, pulling out of a four-way, an officer pulled us over because our tail lights were busted. Of course, I had no idea and basically the officer just issued a warning to my friend (he's the owner of the car, so he did most of the talking). However, the officer did take my license and took a while with it; in this time I had no idea what he was doing. There was nothing but politeness and courtesy exchanged in the end we just drove straight to the party we were headed to. At the party though, there was some guy who put his hand out to shake mine for Insurance rates going up . This guy's on an ego-trip so I had no care about what he had to say at all but now I'm kind of worried. Question: Did my insurance rates go up for driving without tail lights? I understand that, as driver, I'm fully responsible of the vehicle, but the owner was with me and so he doesn't have to be the one that gets tagged with the record for this??? I live in Canada and the officer didn't inform me of anything like this. Help, please and thank you.""
Can you have two car insurance companies with out them finding out?
I need an SR22 but my parents insurance company (Allstate) is saying I must go somewhere else or my payments are going to sky rocket. I only need the SR22 for two months so I figured I'd just get a second policy for two months, stay on my parents' as well, then just cancel the second policy when I don't need the SR22 any more so I can avoid losing the great rates I have on my parents'. Would my current insurance company find out if I got a second policy and cause me to have to reevaluate our current policy (which is the main thing I'm trying to avoid). And lastly, if you can't have two policies on one car could I leave my name on both and just take the car off my parents without having to reevaluate our current Allstate policy?""

The hottest places on the planet for your 2018 destination wedding
Your fiancé proposed, and you – of course – said, “Yes!” Now it’s time to start planning the destination wedding of your dreams!
You’ve got an idea of when you’d most love to host your event, but there are literally so many magical, amazing locales to choose from for your destination wedding, how do you pick just one?
Well, if you’re like us, you look at all your options. And, yes, there are quite a few.
We sat down and had a chat. Started a list. Then went to our community of wedding planning professionals, many of whom specialize in destination weddings, to see what is trending in the wedding world.
These are our favorites:
The Bahamas – While there is a risk of getting rained on during hurricane season, June generally sees mild weather, fewer crowds and significantly lower prices for destination wedding events. While some resorts in the Out Islands close through November, New Providence and Paradise Island remain open year-round.
Our favorite Bahamian destination wedding location is the One&Only resort. You can read more about that here.
Unrivalled attention to detail, legendary hospitality and magical venues of romantic elegance. From the terraced steps of a 12th Century Augustinian cloister, adorned in tropical bloom to the pristine white sand beaches and tranquil Bahamian blue waters, discover an ideal location for destination wedding ceremonies, vow renewals and engagements.
Consider any of the four venues at the resort: The Cloisters, Versailles Garden, the beach deck, or the Versailles terrace. All are equally beautiful and perfectly suited for a destination wedding.
Miami – Also considered off-season during the summer, Miami will always draw couples seeking an awesome place to host their destination wedding. During the winter, you’ll also find a lot of European and South American visitors seeking an escape from winter.
To keep cool in the blazing heat, you need only take a dip in the Atlantic, Biscayne Bay … or an infinity pool. You’ll be able to spread out on South Beach, plus people-watching on Lincoln Road and Miami Beach’s epic nightlife will be as entertaining as ever.
Our favorite? Well, we couldn’t agree on just one; we’re tied up between these two:
The Palms Hotel & Spa – The picture-perfect Palms Hotel is a favorite location for destination wedding events on South Beach thanks to its tropical setting and oceanfront location, large enough for up to 200 guests on the sand. For a more Old Florida-inspired feel, the colonial gazebo in the garden is a great backdrop for exchanging vows (and looks pretty on camera, too).
Acqualina Resort & Spa – Every bride seeking a magical destination wedding needs a dream team to make sure everything goes according to plan. And at Acqualina you’ll work with your very own team of A-Listers that take care of everything from making sure your destination wedding stationery is coordinated to perfect pastries.
Now comes the tough part, which ocean view destination wedding venue at the resort to pick?
If your guest list is on the larger side, opt for a tented ceremony on the Great Lawn.
Mackinac Island, 20 minutes by boat from either the Upper or Lower Peninsula of Michigan, comes alive on summer weekends. Most of its roughly 4 square miles is designated parkland, ideal for hiking and cycling … and – of course – destination wedding events. Be sure to take in the beautiful architecture of its own painted ladies, Victorian cottages that date back to just after the Civil War.
Mackinac Island is a national wedding destination.
Its roots are based on the classic fairy tale wedding featuring horse drawn carriages. Very popular. The Island has a variety of wedding options to host small weddings, second weddings and to couples wanting to renew their vows.
Mackinac Island is home to nearly 50 wedding vendors. They are all listed here and ready to make your special day just that. We talked about venues at which to marry in Michigan a little while back. Feel free to read more here.
Amsterdam – At first, Amsterdam may seem out of place on this list, but summer is the ideal time to host your destination wedding there. The gray skies have lifted, festivals abound and events to enjoy including the Open Garden Days, when visitors can peek into the private gardens behind the beautiful houses that line the famous canals. Here are some ideas for you!
We LOVE Amsterdam.
However, the law in the Netherlands that applies to who can get married there includes the stipulation that at least one partner in the proposed marriage must be “a Dutch citizen or a legal resident of the Netherlands with a long-stay permit or asylum status.”
In other words, if both people in the couple are from outside the Netherlands, don’t live in the country, and don’t have any permit to stay in the country, the best you can do is honeymoon in Amsterdam – but you can’t get legally married there.
You CAN have a lovely commitment ceremony, with the coolest reception ever back home, for family and friends who could not travel.
Again, we had difficulty settling on one destination wedding location, so we’re giving you the tie, and you guys can decide for yourselves. What can we say? We liked the mansions!
Huize Frankendael is the last country house in Amsterdam, and one of the city’s top 10 monuments. At this resplendent estate, you can celebrate your destination wedding with up to 400 people.
In the heart of Amsterdam, by the Haarlemmerstraat, you will find the stately West India House. It used to be the headquarters of the Dutch West India Company between 1623 and 1647.
The estate was once the main place where residents of Amsterdam wed. A romantic and authentic atmosphere permeates the unique courtyard.
Even though it’s located in the city center, this historic location possesses a calm vibe where any wedding wishes are possible!
You won’t need your passport to visit what has been historically a very popular destination for weddings.
You may feel as though you’re in another world thanks to Hawaii’s red- and black-sand beaches, lush sea cliffs, volcanic landscapes, abundant sea life and rich Polynesian culture.
Each of the 6 major islands offers unique experiences tailored for a luxury, romantic, adventurous, eco-friendly or beach vacation.
We found this nifty, fun little Hawaiian Island quiz to help you figure out which island is best for your event.
Hawaii has always been hot stuff for brides planning a destination wedding.
We’re happy to see that it’s gaining in popularity again. Many couples have the dream of a tropical destination wedding on a gorgeous beach. Sometimes budget is a factor, others – it’s a time thing. Whatever the reason, Hawaii is truly swoon-worthy as a place to host your dream destination wedding.
Here’s some further information on the coolest hot Hawaiian destinations!
We’re glad to see you’re getting yourself organized early.
Planning any wedding can be a challenge, and a destination wedding adds fuel to the fire.
If you’ve said, “Yes!” but are struggling with several wedding planning factors, we’re here to help. Get in touch and let’s get you scheduled to talk to the fabulous Fran. You’re gonna love her! She’ll help you get your colors sorted, talk to you about save the date cards, destination wedding invitations, and more.
Developing your vision of your dreamy Best Day Ever can be complicated, that’s why we put together these collections of curated images to help you stay motivated.
We know you guys are going to be a happy couple, and we know this is going to be your Best Day Ever!
