"In 1977, when John Conyngham was twenty-two, the sugar farm of his childhood and youth was sold. Driven by a sense of loss, he wrote his acclaimed novel The Arrowing of the Cane. Now, decades later, he returns to where his story began, to capture a world before it fades forever." "Hazara" is a lyrical account of an Anglo-South African family and its farm. It is about a homestead in a park-like garden among cane fields, within sight of the Indian Ocean. It is about sons fighting in wars and daughters nursing in military hospitals. It is about tennis parties, and drinks on the veranda. It is about people who love Africa but know they don’t fully belong.
