Vassanji takes a curious approach at the topic of how history is presented, how it could and should be reconstructed and how it influences characters´ identities and perceptions. Finding out the truth in history is not always easy. Especially in this novel, since the narrative changes between quite a variety of different angles and perspectives and is mainly driven by subjective and personal histories of the characters. This includes a diary, letters, personal experiences and thoughts. The perception of history and the narrative are going to be one focus of this paper. How can truth be extracted from a history which is shaped by subjective and personal opinions and observations? Can there even be simple, linear, historical truth? Another core area of this paper deals with the question of how the characters´ thoughts and actions are being influenced by their personal history, their cultural background and confrontations with a new culture. Are social or cultural superiorities used to an advantage in order to manipulate other people? In addition to that, it will slightly be touched upon the characters´ sense of origin and how living in a new environment and interacting with other people has an impact on their personality. This paper will concentrate on the three main characters namely Corbin, Pipa, and Pius. Focusing on their personal struggles, experiences, desires and their relationship with other characters. Analysing their perspectives will help to identify their true motifs and therefore giving more implications and clues on how to solve some of the secrets. Before the conclusion, the pasts influence on the present will also be slightly touched upon. Versandfertig in 3-5 Tagen Lieferzeit 1-2 Werktage.
