Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is set on the idyllic, but far-flung, island of Jallagar in the Indian Ocean. The book is set during the height of British colonialism, presenting a detailed portrayal of the lifestyles, perspectives, and prejudices of its various empire-building characters. The tale is cente…red on the arrival of a fresh-faced American academic, Professor Haliburton J. Bliss, who has journeyed to Jallagar to witness firsthand how the English govern their exotic colonial outposts. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that the island's languid pace and tropical beauty mask a society riven with petty rivalries, eccentric characters, and the clashing of cultures. The author weaves together themes of academic exploration, colonialism, and the search for meaning in exotic environments, with the story told through the eyes of newcomers and the long-serving British colonialists. This allows for a detailed exploration of the human condition as experienced by both the colonizers and the people they ruled. The tales are humorous, tragic, and thought-provoking, offering an unusual insight into the human condition as experienced by the colonizers as well as the people they ruled.
