Set on a fictional Caribbean island during World War II and in
modern-day Vancouver, He Drown She in the Sea is the spellbinding
story of two childhood friends reunited late in life. As children, Rose
Sangha and her housekeeper's son, Harry, are inseparable, blissfully
unaware of the subtleties of class hierarchy until the night Harry is
banished from the Sangha home. When Harry and Rose meet again in Canada
years later, the gulf separating them is not so apparent. They have a
life-affirming affair and Rose dares to reroute their destinies. This is
a haunting, sensuous, and suspenseful story about love against all odds,
and the sacrifice and euphoria that come with defying the life one is
born into.
