Krátky popis
From the author of Death and the Maidenand other works that explore
relations of power in the postcolonial world comes the story of a
man whose distant past comes to haunt him. Is the sordid story
behind human zoos that flourished in Europe in the nineteenth
century connected somehow to a boy's life a hundred years later? On
Fitzroy Foster's fourteenth birthday on September 11, 1981, he
receives an unexpected and unwelcome gift: when his father snaps
his picture with a Polaroid, another person's image appears in the
photo. Fitzroy and his childhood sweetheart, Cam, set out on a
decade-long journey in search of this stranger's identity--and to
reinstate his own--across seas and continents, into the far past
and the evil and good that glint in the eyes of the elusive
visitor. Seamlessly weaving together fact and fiction, Darwin's
Ghostsholds up a different light to Conrad's ",The horror! The
horror!", and a different kind of answer to the urgent questions,
Who are we? And what can we do about it?
