From the Nobel Prize-winning author comes a novel of exile, displacement, and the agonizing cruelty and pain of colonialism, both for those who rule and those who are their victims.
โA brilliant novel in every way.โฆ [It] shimmers with artistic certainty.โ โThe New York Times Book Review
Set on a troubled Carribbean island, where โeverybody wants to fight his own little war,โ where โeveryone is a guerrilla,โ the novel centers on an Englishman named Roche, once a hero of the South African resistance, who has come to the island โ subdued now, almost withdrawn โ to work and to help. Soon his English mistress arrives: casually nihilistic, bored, quickly enticed โ excited โ by fantasies of native power and sexuality, and blindly unaware of any possible consequences of her acts. At once Roche and Jane are drawn into fatal connection with a young guerrilla leader named Jimmy Ahmed, a man driven by his own raging fantasies of power, of perverse sensuality, and of the England he half remembers, half sentimentalizes. Against the larger anguish of the world they inhabit, these three act out a drama of death, hideous sexual violence, and political and spiritual impotence that profoundly reflects the ravages history can make on human lives.
