More about the book

Set against the backdrop of colonial Africa, the narrative follows retired schoolteacher Pius Fernandes as he discovers a diary from 1913, penned by a British administrator. Intrigued by its cryptic entries, he embarks on a quest to unravel a tale of forbidden relationships, hidden resentments, family mysteries, and cultural dislocation. This journey not only reveals the complexities of the past but also connects Fernandes to his own history, intertwining personal and collective narratives of love and vengeance.
