Through the intertwining stories of Dolly and Rajkumar, the history of the 20th century is told across three generations, spread over three interlinked parts of the British Empire: Burma, with its conflicting undercurrents of discontent; Malaysia, with its cast number of rubber plantations; and India, amid growing opposition to British rule. This is an epic novel written with unerring skill. The English novelist, has surpassed himself here. The author of The Shadow Lines has come up with a monumental work of the historical imagination.
