Sea of Poppy

At the center of this exciting saga is Ibis, a ship; Before the Opium Wars broke out between England and China in the 19th century, the crew of the ship trying to cross the Indian Ocean on this turbulent journey were sailors, fugitives, vagabonds and convicts: In a period of uprisings in the colonies, fate brought together Indians and Westerners, a mixed-race American from Dîti, a peasant woman who ran away from her family. A period that brought together people from all walks of life and races, from sailors to bankrupt rajahs to opium dealers. As their old ties to family fade away, they see themselves as shipbrothers, and an unlikely dynasty is born that spans continents, races, and generations. Lush green poppy fields on the banks of the Ganges, stormy seas, and exotic backstreets of Canton form the backdrop of this breathtaking novel. The first book of an unforgettable trilogy from Amitav Ghosh of Indian origin, whose star has risen in recent years.
