” We should never have come!” so said Aidan Hartley`s father in his final days, rising from a bed made from mountain cedar, lashed with thongs of rawhide from an oryx shot many years before. His words spoke of a colonial legacy that stretched back over 150 years through four generations of one British family. In The Zanzibar Chest, Hartley weaves together his family`s history, his childhood in Africa & his accounts of the continent`s horrendous wars, which he witnessed at first hand as a journalist in the 1990s. Burnt out from a decade of horror, during which three of his close friends were torn to pieces by an angry mob in Somalia, Aidan retreats to his family`s house in Kenya, where he discovers the Zanzibar chest containing the diaries of his father`s best friend, Peter Davey, an Englishman who died under mysterious circumstances more than fifty years earlier. Tucking the papers under his arm, Hartley embarks on a journey to southern Arabia in an effort not only to unlock the secrets of Davey`s life, but of his own. Travelling to the remote deserts where his father served as a British officer, Aidan begins to piece together the disparate elements of Davey`s story, a man who fell in love with an Arabian woman & converted to Islam, but ultimately had to pay an exacting price. At once a modern & a historic love story, The Zanzibar Chest is also an epic narrative charting the fates of men & women who embraced & were ultimately transformed by foreign lands. ...
