| Summary, etc |
The first in an epic trilogy. Sea of Poppies is a remarkably rich saga which has plenty of action and adventure a la Dumas, but moments also of Tolstoyan penetration and a drop or two of Dickensian sentiment. At the heart of this vibrant saga is a vast ship, the Ibis. Her destiny is a tumultuous voyage across the Indian Ocean shortly before the outbreak of the Opium Wars in China. In a time of colonial upheaval, fate has thrown together a diverse cast of Indians and Westerners onboard., from a bankrupt raja to a widowed tribeswoman from a mulatto American freedman to a free-spirited French orphan.<br/> |
