A historical novel by Nobel Prize-winning Zanzibar-born British writer Abdulrazak Gurnah.

The story, set shortly before the First World War, deals with betrayal and promises on the part of the state or those in power, and focus on people who leave home in search of better lives. It sheds light on the costs of German colonialsm to the native people.
