Spanning 80 years of Indian servitude in South Africa, this novel ebbs and flows with four generations of characters who work as indentured laborers in the cane fields of Natal and Durban. Eventually, the families move to the Casbah district, home of the infamous ""Grey Street system."" With meticulous research and magnetic, taut storytelling, this work weaves a narrative that is rich in character, history, and place.
