The narrative follows Peter Moss, who at eleven experienced the Anglo-Indian exodus during India's independence. Struggling to adapt to postwar Britain, he witnessed the decline of the British Empire. Upon returning to his childhood home over thirty years later, he discovers that the Anglo-India of his youth has vanished, lost to the passage of time and historical change. The story reflects themes of nostalgia, cultural displacement, and the impact of historical events on personal identity.
