Dear members, I'm getting quite a few queries about overseas orders for the book Guts, Glory and Empire: Goans in Zanzibar. Right now, it is only available in India (perhaps in the future it will be available in Europe) but Dogears Bookshop Margao will dispatch books anywhere in the world, safely and securely. Please do contact them at [email protected] or [email protected] This is a book like you've not read before. It's not about Zanzibar per se, it is about Goans, how they lived more than a 100 years ago, their homes, their hopes, the racism they faced, the racism they inflicted, were they complicit in the slave trade, did they think of themselves as Indian, did they push back against empire. Did caste rivalries play out, did speaking Portuguese matter. I promise you, you will enjoy this book which reads like a novel. All best, Selma CarvalhoAuthor of Guts, Glory & Empire: The Epic Story of Goans in Zanzibar, 1865-1910, Sisterhood of Swans and Notes on a Marriage all published by Speaking Tiger.
