The Last Gift

Abbas never spoke about his past. About what happened before he became a sailor. Before he met the woman he loved, Mariam. Before he began to live a peaceful life. All this "before" is shrouded in gloomy silence. His wife and children are tired of asking questions.
But now, after suffering a stroke, he is confined to bed. And the time has come to tell what happened and why he was silent. The new novel by the English writer of Tanzanian origin Abdulrazak Gurnah – the Nobel Prize winner in Literature of 2021.
