520 _aThe Memory of Love transports us to an African city, where a dying man, Elias Cole, reflects on a past obsession: Saffia, a woman he loved, and Julius, her charismatic, unpredictable husband. Arriving in the wake of a civil war, Adrian Lockheart is a psychologist new to this foreign land, struggling with its secrets and the intensity of the heat, dirt and dust, until he finds friendship in Kai Mansaray, a young colleague at the hospital. All three lives will collide in a story about friendship, love, war, about understanding the indelible effects of the past and the very nature of obsessive love.
