No matter how many times he did his sums, Filipe Gamboa's salary never amounted to his daydream. He would always want more than he possessed. He longed for a great fortune not only for a luxury apartment and a Mercedes Benz but also to ensure his daughter, Mariana, had the best possible future with the best possible education. His misfortune is to be passed over at work, and then arrested at a political demonstration. After which he is put in a small boat and abandoned in the ocean . . . But when death seems inevitable, another world beckons. New lives can be swapped for old, and Gamboa on his mysterious island sanctuary can create an illusion that the intervening years have not passed, and that his idea of the past is merely a foreknowledge of the future. With poetic insight and surreal logic Zulfikar Ghose depicts a universe where individuals are inextricably bound by the perversities of fate, able only to dream escape.
