A twenty-six-year-old Indian cricket journalist, not unlike our author, decides to give up his job and travel to a country where he can ‘escape the deadness of his life’. So he arrives in Guyana, a forgotten colonial society of raw, mesmerizing beauty. From the beautiful, decaying wooden houses in Georgetown, through coastal sugar-cane plantations, to the dark rainforest interior home to a secretive society of diamond-hunters, he is absorbed by this fantastic and complex country.
