## Book details

Alors qu'il fuit Zanzibar, il pense qu'il ne reviendra probablement jamais, et pourtant, le rêve d'étudier en Angleterre prime sur tout. Les choses ne se déroulent pas tout à fait comme il l'avait imaginé : l'école où il enseigne est exiguë et violente, il oublie ce que signifie appartenir à un groupe. Mais il y a Emma, la belle et rebelle Emma, qui renie ses origines bourgeoises et blanches pour lui offrir son amour et lui donner un enfant. En retour, il lui raconte des histoires de son pays et lui cache leur existence. Vingt ans plus tard, lorsque les barrières tombent enfin à Zanzibar, il est à la fois capable et contraint d'y retourner. Ce qu'il y découvre, dans un récit d'une grande force expressive, bouleversera sa vision de la vie.
