Karim returns to his sleepy hometown after university in Dar es Salaam with a new swagger and sense of ambition.  There he catches the eye of Fauzia, who sees in him a chance at escape from a smothering upbringing. When the two of them offer a haven to Badar, a poor boy still unsure if the future holds anything for him at all, they little imagine how deeply their fates will entwine and diverge. As rapidly accelerating global change reaches even their quiet corner of the world, bringing tourists, technology, and unexpected opportunities and perils, each arrives at a different understanding of what it means to take your fate into your own hands"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://petoskey.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S89C1050654</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://petoskey.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S89C1050654</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gurnah, Abdulrazak]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://petoskey.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1050654089</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593852606/MC.GIF&amp;client=petoskeypac2&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Afterlives]]></title><description><![CDATA["When he was just a boy, Ilyas was stolen from his parents on the coast of east Africa by German colonial troops. After years away, fighting against his own people, he returns home to find his parents gone and his sister Afiya abandoned into de facto slavery. Hamza, too, is back from the war. He was not stolen but sold into service, where he became the protégé of an officer whose special interest has left him literally scarred for life. With nothing but the clothes on his back, he seeks only steady work and safety--until he meets the beautiful, undaunted Afiya. As these young people live and work and fall in love, their fates knotted ever more tightly together, the shadow of a new war on another continent falls over them, ready to snatch them up and once again carry them away"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://petoskey.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S89C966568</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://petoskey.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S89C966568</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gurnah, Abdulrazak]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://petoskey.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/966568089</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593541883/MC.GIF&amp;client=petoskeypac2&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item></channel></rss>
