### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    LOVED this book!
  

*by S***E on Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2011*

This is an incredible novel that has everything going for it. The Sandalwood Tree is one of those rare books that combines evocative writing, an incredible story -- or I should stay stories, because  there are multiple layers-- and meticulous research. Elle Newmark's writing is so vivid, I feel like I've been to India in the 1940s and 1850s. She masterfully  captures the colors, smells, sounds, and textures of this complicated country. I don't want to give away the plot, but I will say that this is a complex novel about love and war, and the healing power of forgiveness. I loved The Sandalwood Tree and highly recommend it.

    For those who lova a good saga
  

*by L***L on Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2011*

This is a sweeping story that expertly blends fiction and history as the author weaves together two stories which take place in two tumultuous times in Indian history. One story recounts the events of India's First World War also known as the Sepoy Mutiny; the other takes place during the 1940's as British rule was coming to an end in India. The book moves easily between the two periods showing both the similarities and the unique aspects of each. In one story we follow Evie Mitchell and her family as Evie struggles to fix her ailing marriage. It is through her eyes that we see both the British and the Indian perspective on the events that unfold during Partition. The other story is that of Felicity and Adela who lived in the Victorian period, 90 years earlier. Their story is told mostly through letters; it's compelling with many interesting tid-bits of the era. In both stories, Newmark very nicely captures a country at unrest, drawing the reader in with rich historical details, beautiful relationships and warm believable characters.

    is the convergence of two love stories through time
  

*by S***Y on Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2017*

Elle Newmark’s story, as she herself describes, is the convergence of two love stories through time, one in the eighteenth century and another in the nineteenth. This novel is a great read as well as an intriguing discussion.In 1947, Evie and Martin, a young couple with a young son from Chicago, travel to India for Martin’s historical research of the exit of the British Empire amidst the contentious partition of the nation of India. With many hours and days of isolation at home, Evie finds letters hidden in the family’s cottage and clandestinely explores the life of the young women who had once lived in her home. Her search is not without its own dangers.In India, in 1850, the Sepoy Revolution endangered the early English colonists, and it was during that time that two young and marriageable English women, rebellious of the strict English standards of conduct and expectation pressed upon them, found escape and solace in each other’s company in the Indian countryside, in Masoorla. Conflicts flourish between the characters, all struggling to find their own way through difficult times as they negotiate their way among teas and gossip and the abundance of Indian flavors and traditions. Surprises abound.
