Meer over het boek
Set in 1920s Burma during the decline of British imperialism, the story explores the lives of Englishmen who gather at a European Club, seeking solace from their isolation. Central to the narrative is James Flory, a timber merchant grappling with the moral implications of colonial rule and his inability to support his Indian friend, Dr. Veraswami, in the face of racial discrimination. Flory's internal struggle intensifies when he falls for Elizabeth Lackersteen, prompting questions about loyalty, courage, and conscience amidst societal pressures.
