Description

In this sweeping novel, a young man from East Africa arrives in America during the turbulent late 1960s, seeking a new life amidst anti-war protests and radical change. He is quickly swept into the tumultuous currents of the era, events that will cast a long shadow over his future. Decades later, an older and disillusioned Ramji finds himself entangled in circumstances that eerily echo the past, forcing him to confront unanswered questions and the profound consequences of choices made long ago. This is a powerful exploration of betrayal, disillusionment, and the enduring search for identity across changing landscapes and personal histories.
