No Past No Present No Future

"In the fictional country of Bauya three adolescent boys of very different backgrounds form a firm friendship, convinced that nothing could break the ties that bind them. Their loyalties are put to the test by their emerging sexuality and by the prejudices they encounter when they leave Africa for Europe." "In this coming-of-age novel Maddy vividly exposes the imperial legacy and its effects on the lives of the rich and the poor, Africans and Europeans, heterosexuals and homosexuals."--BOOK JACKET.
