The Miraculous True History of Nomi Ali is a lyrical, gripping homage to those omitted from the collective memory.

Nomi and Zee are Local Borns--their father a convict condemned by the British to the Andaman Islands, their mother shipped off with him. When war descends upon this overlooked outpost of Empire, the British are forced out and the Japanese move in. The islands--and the seas surrounding them--become a battlefield, resulting in tragedy for some and a brittle kind of freedom for others, who find themselves increasingly entangled in a mesh of alliances and betrayals.

Ambitiously imagined and hauntingly alive,  Uzma Aslam Khanwrites into being the interwoven stories of people caught in the vortex of colonial collision, powerless save for their own bravery and empathy. The Miraculous True History of Nomi Ali is an epic telling of a largely forgottenchapter in history.
