The novel, like many of Steel's works, delves into the complexities of colonial India, exploring themes of cultural interaction, imperialism, and the social and moral issues of the time. Steel's narrative often reflects her deep understanding of Indian society and her nuanced perspective on the British colonial administration."In the Guardianship of God" centers around the lives of its characters as they navigate the challenges and dynamics of colonial rule. The story may explore the relationships between the British officials and the Indian populace, highlighting the tensions, misunderstandings, and moments of cooperation that arise in such a setting.
