Laurence Hope, the pseudonym of Adela Florence Cory 'Violet' Nicholson (1865-1904), holds a significant position in literary history. Her experiences in British India, especially in Baluchistan and Central India, cultivated a profound fondness for the country and its traditions. Drawing inspiration from the poetry of North-West Frontier poets in India and the Sufi poets of Persia, her poems vividly capture their essence through evocative imagery and symbolism. As a notable presence in the romantic literary landscape, she remains a memorable figure from the Victorian and Edwardian eras. While she adopted the name Laurence Hope for her creative works, her true identity was Adela Nicholson. Her marriage to Colonel Nicholson, a man who was twice her age, left a mark on her life. Tragically burdened by melancholy after his passing, she resorted to a fatal act of self-poisoning, bringing an end to her own life.
