As she navigates the social intricacies of her new environment, Hilda becomes increasingly aware of the injustices of colonial rule and forms meaningful connections with local characters, including her maid Sita and Dr. Biswas. Her journey culminates in her involvement in a nationalist uprising, prompting a deep reflection on her privilege and the realities of imperialism, making it a significant exploration of race, gender, and colonial complexities.
