If you have traveled to or always hoped to travel to places like India and Kashmir you will love this wonderful read! The characters are so real, and it's so beautifully written you will be as heartbroken as I was when it ended! It was interesting, intriguing, educational, inspirational-and more! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars A great read!!!! *by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2013* The test of a good read is, in my opinion, rushing through a boring task (like housework) in order to sit down and read a few chapters. Conversely, one may avoid reading towards the end of a good book, not wanting the story to end. The Kashmir Shawl was such a book.I've always enjoyed reading about Colonial India and its relationships with neighboring states. I located most of the locations mentioned in the book on a world map, and followed Nerys and Mair's journeys with great interest. This was my first book by this author, and I was impressed with how thoroughly she researches her history. To enjoy a book and actually learn a little bit about history is a great combination. The characters were richly drawn, with the women seemingly stronger than the men. Caroline's and Nerys's romantic affairs were treated with dignity no matter what the outcome, or the reasons behind them. The men were for the most part very stiff, caught up in their own roles of the Raj in that period of history. Then again, the book is more about the women left behind than the military battles of that time. If the final link between the past and present stories was a little implausible, it did allow for the story to finally wind down, with an expected and pleasant ending.Seven years of employment in a bookstore have taught me that many novels labeled and located in the "romance" section are actually just good historical fiction. I encourage anyone who enjoys a good book, a la Maeve Binchy and Kate Morton (to name a few) to try this one. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful - pure magic on every page *by R***E on Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2013* How well do we know our family? How much of our parents or grandparents life stories are lost with them?This book looks at the complex natures not only within families but within our own relationships as husbands, wives and friends. Like the shawl itself, this tale is intricately woven and wraps you up as you float through the pages. Every character is well thought out and developed and you feel like you are right there with them.It is a story that looks at marriages and the roads that lead you together and then apart (and sometimes back together again), it is about children and the impact they have on your life (whether you have them or not) and how sometimes there are choices to be made that impact every element of your life.The story jumps between current day and the 1940's and while there are snippets of Wales, the majority of it is set in India.I have not read anything else by Rosie Thomas - but this was a great read and I could recommend it to anyone looking for a historical/drama with a touch of romance x --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/8081847-the-kashmir-shawl-a-novel](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/8081847-the-kashmir-shawl-a-novel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
