520 _aThe Kohinoor diamond is one of the most famous diamonds in the world. Stolen from India, fought over throughout centuries of conquest and turmoil, and eventually stolen yet again by British colonizers who cut it down to half its original size, the diamond is displayed to this day as part of the crown jewels in the Tower of London museum, a trophy of colonial power. Probing, poetic, and shimmering with the colors and patterns of Indian textiles, And Yet You Shine tells the true story of a precious gem's tumultuous journey. But it is more than a history--it is also a vibrant and moving meditation on resilience that invites readers of all backgrounds to decolonize and to shine with all their might.
