Anotace knihy

In the final years of colonial Burma, young Andrew Wells arrives in Rangoon to assume a post in the Commissioner's office, assigned to seek solutions for escalating crime and social unrest in the countryside. As he grows fond of his adopted country, its people, and in particular of the charming and beautiful Burmese Mya Shwe, in the cipher office, Andrew also begins to penetrate the cultural veil that obscures, for many in the colonial administration, the underlying causes of unrest. The gentle romance between Andrew and Mya Shwe unfolds against a backdrop of upheaval and eventually violence in the troubled colony, leading to dramatic changes in both of their lives. O'Hara's book has much to teach the reader on the flavour of Burmese culture as well as the emergence of the independent state in the first half of the 20th century. This is the second novel from O'Hara, set in the unsettled final years of colonial Burma.
