About the Book

The year is 1947 – Carlos slips over the orphanage wall in search of the village girl who has captured his heart.

From that moment, his is a life at sea, a life that moves across the globe and across generations, lived on the turning tides of love affairs, friendships and enmities.

‘Reading Equator is like immersing yourself in a butterfly dance while being mesmerised by history … The characters, … begin their traversing of time and place in 1947 Spain, but the story soon exquisitely deviates into 2009 London, 1930s India and passages on memory, love, luck, good and evil.’ – Pip Newling, Readings Monthly
