I’m excited to share that my debut novel, The Eucalyptus Tree, is now out in the world!
Set between Madagascar and England, this story follows two lives unfolding in parallel: one shaped by poverty and struggle, the other by hope and reinvention. At its heart, it's a story about resilience, identity, and finding your voice.
This book is deeply personal to me. It’s inspired by the place I come from, the things I’ve carried with me, and the longing that comes with living far from home. It also brings a spotlight to Madagascar, a country that is rarely seen in fiction.
The blurb:
"Razaf had a dream: to become a musician. But in the midst of recurring political turmoil in Madagascar, everything collapsed. His dreams, once within reach, were shattered in a heartbeat. What happens when the only thing you know how to do is no longer possible
Five thousand six hundred miles away, Hira dares to dream, too—of becoming a writer. As she navigates love, cultural differences, and the search for her identity, she also carries the weight of a legacy marked by struggle. Can she succeed where others could not?
The Eucalyptus Tree is a poignant tale of resilience, family, and the fight to break free from a cycle of struggles, set in a place rarely explored in fiction. Enriched with Malagasy proverbs and cultural insights, this story offers a unique window into Madagascar, like you’ve never seen it before."
It's available on Amazon! Thank you for your support!
