Of Rajen Mitra\u0083??s five lovely daughters, it is the youngest\u0083??the beautiful, intelligent Swati\u0083??who is the apple of her father\u0083??s eye. As she grows from an impetuous, spirited child to a lonely young woman, Swati is witness to the upheavals and joys of the Mitra family even as the country slides towards the promise of independence and the inevitability of war.<\/p>\n
Anxious to ensure that his daughters find suitable husbands, Rajen-babu realizes it is only a matter of time before his favourite child too must leave home. While the boorish entrepreneur Prabir Majumdar decides that she will make him a fitting wife, Swati finds herself increasingly drawn to Satyen, the young professor who introduces her to a world of books and the heady poetry of Tagore and Coleridge. <\/p>\n
First published in Bengali as Tithidore in 1949, When the Time Is Right is a moving tale of a family and a nation.<\/p>\n
