Book Overview
Parrot & co. explores the emotional terrain of exile, memory, and companionship through the journey of an American traveler and a loyal servant navigating the sun-drenched reaches of Burma. With only a parrot as constant company for six years, the protagonist s life is shaped by solitude and unspoken regrets. The novel opens in the arid regions near the Irrawaddy River, offering a backdrop of stark beauty and underlying desolation. The servant, observant and steady, provides contrast and support, as a concealed past gradually comes into focus. The parrot, more than a pet, acts as a living symbol of endurance and the remnants of a former life, representing both comfort and emotional burden. As they move toward a distant city, their shared experiences expose subtle shifts in inner resolve. A faint thread of romantic possibility adds intrigue to the narrative but never overtakes the quiet meditation on identity and emotional repair. The novel constructs a layered exploration of personal history, making the story not just a travel narrative, but an inward quest for reconciliation, connection, and meaning amid landscapes both foreign and deeply familiar.
