Part travelogue, part memoir, and part history-rarely-told, here is a powerful and timely portrait of a constantly evolving land. From a description of Zanzibar and its evolution to a visit to a slave-market town at Lake Tanganyika; Vassanji combines brilliant prose, thoughtful and candid observations. Born in Kenya and raised in Tanzania, Canadian author M.G. Vassanji is a two-time Giller Fiction Prize winner, for The Book of Secrets and The In-Between World of Vikram Lall. He lives in Toronto.
