Book description
Drawing on his rich experience and imagination, Stephen Chan has
created a story starting as a valedictory to his dead Ugandan friend
and fellow-traveller. It leads from Uganda to Croatia, across a bridge
of witches. These traumatised lands are peopled by corpses and
spirits, and men in suits, and angels. Chan writesabout peoples living
on trauma. The guide on this journey is a Chinese Englishman, somewhat
like the author, and an Indian, an outsider to all their troubles,
bringing an outsider's desire to cut down evil with right.
