About the Author

Peter Gainsford is the author of After Sundown: A story of post-war life amongst British expatriates in Kenya in the late 1940's. His work explores the personal consequences of historical change, bringing together evocative settings, social observation, and the intimate experiences of people living far from home. With an interest in cultural encounters and the lingering effects of war, Gainsford places individual lives within richly suggestive historical circumstances. His writing will appeal to readers drawn to thoughtful narratives about identity, memory, displacement, and the complex legacies of empire.
