Nurdin Lalani and his family, Asian immigrants from Africa, have come to the Toronto suburb of Don Mills only to find that the old world and its values pursue them. A genial orderly at a downtown hospital, he has been accused of sexually assaulting a girl. Although he is innocent, traditional propriety prompts him to question the purity of his own thoughts. Ultimately, his friendship with the enlightened Sushila offers him an alluring freedom from a past that haunts him, a marriage that has become routine, and from the trials of coping with teenage children. Introducing us to a cast of vividly drawn characters within this immigrant community, Vassanji is a keen observer of lives caught between one world and another.

reviewed No New Land on February 04, 2016 No New Land
Nurdin Lalani was salesman in Bata company at Dar, and he loved his nomadic life. At least it kept him away from his strict disciplinarian father. Tanzania gets liberated and people who were neither Black nor White felt insecure and shifted to other countries. Only Canada permitted without much fuss and the immigrants mostly Shamsi community settled in Toronto at Don Mill-Rosecliffe complex. Kierkegaard's Thoughts regarding free will is good. What we think as choice to live is actually let you live.Racial hatred is one of the major problems World is facing today. Vassanji does not offer solution.He states the fact and his agony, frustration, loss of self-esteem and insecurities are apparent. Canada has become a quilt with patches. Superficially it is beautiful, deeply it could be horrible.
