With him he has a small bag in which there lies his most precious possession - a mahogany box containing incense. He used to own a furniture shop, have a house and be a husband and father. Now he is an asylum seeker from paradise; silence his only protection. Meanwhile Latif Mahmud, someone intimately connected with Saleh's past, lives quietly alone in his London flat. When Saleh and Latif meet in an English seaside town, a story is unravelled. It is a story of love and betrayal, of seduction and of possession, and of a people desperately trying to find stability amidst the maelstrom of their times.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39571485884451,"sku":"9780747557852","price":23.4,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2514\/8624\/products\/L1010156.jpg?v=1642997607","url":"https:\/\/wardahbooks.live\/products\/bytheseagurnah","provider":"Wardah Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
