Out of the desert stumbles an Englishman who collapses at Hassanali's feet. That man is Martin Pearce--writer, traveller and something of an Orentalist. Hassanali takes him to recuperate at the house of a colonial official, Frederck Turner. When Martin goes to thank Hassanali for his rescue, he meets Hassanali's sister and immediately falls in love with her. This passionate love affair brings two cultures together and will reverberate through three generations and across continents.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Kapaa Public Library Adult Fiction Gurnah Checked In Add Copy to MyList
