About this book
Desert mirages provide the image for a love story about longing, jealousy and the promises people find in appearances. F. W. Bain's Bubbles of the Foam, first published in 1912, introduces an Indian setting through forests, rivers, hills and shifting desert colours. Its introduction links the mirage to Máyá, or delusion, and treats love as a beautiful but fragile source of hope.
Within the story, Aranyání feels compassion for Babhru while recognising how closely his jealousy has read her feelings. After he leaves, she hurries through the wood to meet Atirupa, and their reunion exposes the imbalance between affection offered and affection returned. The book combines romantic fiction with reflection on loneliness, expectation and disappointment.
