_________________________________________________________

What are we given, and what do we have to take for ourselves?

It is the 1990s. Growing up in Zanzibar, three very different young people Karim, Fauzia and Badar are coming of age, and dreaming of great possibilities in their young nation. But for Badar, an uneducated servant boy who has never known his parents, it seems as if all doors are closed.


Brought into a lowly position in a great house in Dar es Salaam, Badar finds the first true home of his life and the friendship of Karim, the young man of the house. Even when a shattering false accusation sees Badar sent away, Karim and Fauzia refuse to turn away from their friend.


But as the three of them take their first steps in love, infatuation, work and parenthood, their bond is tested and Karim is tempted into a betrayal that will change all of their lives forever.

Pressestimmen

Nobody writes about the world we call postcolonial like Abdulrazak Gurnah. His novels are uncompromising, but also stubbornly humane. They come at their subjects with open eyes, and we need what they see
