A Bit of Earth


Book Description

Malaya. A land of unparalleled richness. For centuries, the peninsula has attracted fortune hunters, money-grabbing pirates and migrants seeking a better life. Among those whose lives are rooted in the Malayan soil are three families: the Wongs, sons of the Chinese earth; the Wees, subjects of the English gods; and the Mahmuds, scions of the Malayan soil. Each have different dreams for the bit of earth they live on. Their destinies meet and this clash of hopes inevitably leads to tragedy.
