Abstract:
Amitav Ghosh's novel Sea of Poppies, released in 2008, chronicles interconnecting experiences of many individuals who find themselves onboard Ibis, previously a slave ship, into early 19th century. Maincharacters remain onboard ship under changing and more unfavorable situations, adopting varied degrees of deceit. The novel takes place shortly before the First Opium War, and its major themes are of imperialism and colonialism under a backdrop of drug smuggling and human trafficking by the hands of the British in India and (though largely unseen) China. It is the first in the Ibis trilogy of novels, including Flood of Fire (2015) and River of Smoke (2011). The Man Booker Prize shortlist included Sea of Poppies in 2008.
