Her destiny is a tumultuous voyage across the Indian Ocean shortly before the outbreak of the Opium Wars in China. In a time of colonial upheaval, fate has thrown together a diverse cast of Indians and Westerners on board, from a bankrupt raja to a widowed tribeswoman, from a mulatto American freedman to a free-spirited French orphan. As their old family ties are washed away, they, like their historical counterparts, come to view themselves as jahaj-bhais, or ship-brothers. The vast sweep of this historical adventure spans the lush poppy fields of the Ganges, the rolling high seas, and the exotic backstreets of Canton. With a panorama of characters whose diaspora encapsulates the vexed colonial history of the East itself, Sea of Poppies is a storm-tossed adventure worthy of Sir Walter Scott (Vogue).

Sea of Poppies: A Novel (The Ibis Trilogy, 1)


COPY LINK URL ON DESCRIPTION

The first in an epic trilogy, Amitav Ghosh's Sea of Poppies is a

remarkably rich saga . . . which has plenty of action and

adventure #224 la Dumas, but moments also of Tolstoyan

penetration--and a drop or two of Dickensian sentiment (The

Observer [London]).At the heart of this vibrant saga is a vast

ship, the Ibis. Her destiny is a tumultuous voyage across the

Indian Ocean shortly before the outbreak of the Opium Wars in

China. In a time of colonial upheaval, fate has thrown together

a diverse cast of Indians and Westerners on board, from a

bankrupt raja to a widowed tribeswoman, from a mulatto

American freedman to a free-spirited French orphan. As their

old family ties are washed away, they, like their historical

counterparts, come to view themselves as jahaj-bhais, or shipbrothers.

The vast sweep of this historical adventure spans the

lush poppy fields of the Ganges, the rolling high seas, and the

exotic backstreets of Canton. With a panorama of characters

whose diaspora encapsulates the vexed colonial history of the

East itself, Sea of Poppies is a storm-tossed adventure worthy

of Sir Walter Scott (Vogue).
