Résumé
Tejkumari's Legacy is an historical novel. The story relates the lives of the descendants of the author's family from 1870 to 2010. The first two sections concern Tejkumari and her children, Prem and Deepa, who were abducted from India and taken to British Guiana to work as indentured laborers in 1870. The author was raised in British Guiana, and knew little about the lives of her family and their survival after being usurped from their native country.
Fortunately her ancestors were prolific story tellers. From their accounts, which were corroborated by other people, family records, and extensive research, the author portrays an account of the everyday life of the 5 main characters in this book, as well as the places in which they lived. The accounts are very emotional and evocative, especially having been written from the point of view of the characters as they relate their stories whilst the author captures their feelings as events unfold.
The stories also deal with cultural, psycho-social, economic, educational, and political impacts of life under British colonization. A highly original, fascinating, and inspiring book, and a most definitely recommended read!
