The Abyssinian Boy (Paperback)

Rajaswamy Rajagopalan, a South Indian Tamil Brahmin essayist is totally in love and happy with his East Nigerian Christian wife, Eunice Onwubiko. But there is a threat to their nine-year old marriage. On a trip to Nigeria from India, David -- their only son travels in dreams with an albino dwarf, Nfanfa. A brain illness develops in David and this (alongside with the mass deportation of Indians from Nigeria) set the two families -- Rajagopalan and Onwubiko -- crashing in their faiths as they battle differently to keep alive, the chord that holds them together.
