About this book
Adela Florence Nicolson (née Cory) was an English poet who wrote under the pseudonym Laurence Hope.

In 1901, she published Garden of Kama, which was published a year later in America under the title India's Love Lyrics.

Her poems often used imagery and symbols from the poets of the North-West Frontier of India and the Sufi poets of Persia. She was among the most popular romantic poets
