The Golden Threshold by Sarojini Naidu
"The Golden Threshold" by Sarojini Naidu is an anthology of poems published in 1905. Written when Naidu was just 26, this collection explores themes of romance, nature, and spirituality through an Indian lens. The poems draw from her life in Hyderabad, addressing cultural identity, nationalism, and women's voices. Through folk songs, love poems, and lyrical verses, Naidu bridges English literary traditions with Indian aesthetics, using poetry as a form of activism that
would later propel her into political leadership alongside Gandhi. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
