The Jewel in the Crown is a 1966 novel by Paul Scott that begins his Paradise Quartet. The Quartet novel sequence in four volumes is set in the last days of British rule in India during World War II.
It is a deeply disturbing text, full of emotions and traumatic experiences of a collapsed, imploded urban individual crying out for the meaning of life.
The essays collected in this book reveal the origins and meanders of Sanja Lovrenčić's years-long search for the authentic character of Ivana Brlić Mažuranić.
