An informative and compelling read." -Scott Douglas Gerber, author of The Ivory Tower and The Law Clerk *** "A writer of great creativity and wit, Chaitram Singh brings an intellectual's insight to bear on the light and dark sides of humanity in a situation that speaks of universal struggles, tragedies, and triumphs. . .A compelling story that keeps the reader turning pages." -Bruce Conn, author of The Curse of Durgan's Reef *** "A view of authoritarianism from a very close range . . .The Flour Convoy makes the reader an eyewitness to the corruptive forces so common in post-colonial regimes. A wonderfully crafted plot, presented with a crispness the title conveys." -Nala Singham, Editor and Publisher, The Caribbean New Yorker
