Описание: Gail Lim, a producer of radio documentaries in present-day Vancouver, finds herself haunted by events in her parents' past in war torn Malaysia, a past which remains a mystery that fiercely grips her imagination. Gail's father, Matthew, grew up under the terrifying shadow of war in Japanese-occupied Sanddakan where he witnessed his father being shot by the soldiers with whom he had collaborated. He and his friend Ani wander the Leila Road and the jungle fringe trying to put the horror out of their minds.

Eventually the war shatters their families and Matthew and Ani are separated. Years later they meet briefly, only to be torn apart again, but the legacy of their powerful connection and the life-changing secrets they shared, affects Matthew's wife, Clara, in unexpected ways. Gail's journey to unravel the mystery of her parents' lives takes her to Amsterdam, where a meeting with a war photographer brings closer to the truth about Ani and her father as well as face to face with the complications in her own life.

Описание: Gail Lim, the producer of radio documentaries in present-day Vancouver, finds herself haunted by the mystery of her parents' past in war-torn Malaysia. She is intrigued by her father Matthew and his friend Ani, a girl whose early bond with Matthew, which developed under the terrifying shadow of the war, would create an invisible tension, years later, with his wife Clara. Gail's journey to unravel the mystery of her parents' lives takes her to Amsterdam, which leads her closer to the truth about Ani and her father's shared past, and propels her to a deeper understanding about her own life.

Vivid, profound and written in understated yet powerful prose, "Certainty" is a beautiful novel, at once sweeping and intimate.
