Nature as depicted by Devakīnandan Khatrī in his fantastic novel Candrakāntā, published first in 1888, is full of steep slopes and dark caves. Though beautiful, it is full of treacherous snags and of uncertainty as Khatrī’s time was: any beauty is only on loan, a menace can be hidden behind any beauty. The motif of a light at the end of a tunnel appears again and again, but that may be a delusion. The recurrent motif of darkness, of inaccessible mountains, of caves and narrow tunnels fit into the picture of the post-uprising mental world of a North Indian towards the end of the 19th century
