Descriere

When Pius Fernandes, a retired schoolteacher living in modern day Dar es Salaam, discovers a diary of a British colonial administrator from 1913, he is drawn into a provocative account of the Asian community of East Africa, and the liaisons, feelings and secrets of its people, over the course of a century.

Recenzii

"A love affair with the past . . . [an] exquisite, tender, and possibly great novel." --"The New Yorker "

"Well-written, mulit-layered, and teasingly inconclusive . . . Offers a view of an area seldom treated in fiction. --"The Atlantic Monthly"
