In the heart of colonial Burma, Hira Singh, a young Indian doctor, finds himself torn between his duty to his patients and his longing for his homeland. As he navigates the complexities of a foreign land, he encounters a cast of unforgettable characters, including the enigmatic Lady Esme, who stirs within him a forbidden desire. As Hira Singh's farewell to Burma approaches, he must confront his past, his present, and the uncertain future that lies ahead.
With lyrical prose and evocative imagery, Laurence Hope paints a vivid portrait of a man caught between two worlds, struggling to find his place in a rapidly changing society.
