O knihe
The Destiny They Could Not Avoid
From a young age, Yash Kaushal had heard stories of the beautiful silver beaches and lush forests of East Africa. Leaving India behind and postponing his arranged marriage, he departs from Bombay in search of adventure and intrigue. Unlike many of the young Indian men who find their way to Africa's shores in the early 1920s, Yash is of a privileged family. Eventually, he settles in Kenya and raises his family there. Among his children is the beautiful Selina, who against all tradition falls in love with the handsome, green-eyed Englishman Dirk Willers. Set against the backdrop of a country striving toward independence, Lost is a captivating epic of one family's struggle against racial discrimination, and one woman's quest toward happiness. Will Selina be able to break the ties of her society, her culture, and all that she had been taught to believe in? Will she be strong enough to stand by her love?
