Из пещер и дебрей Индостана

Helena Blavatsky

Novelised travel chronicles through India with Olcott and Indian friends, written for the Russian public. They mix ethnographic description, legends, humour and the appearances of a mysterious 'Takur' who anticipates the figure of the Masters. They revealed Blavatsky as a literary writer in her native language and enjoyed considerable success in Russia; Tolstoy read them.
