Synopsis

Years have passed since Michael and Vishnu left the shores of their beloved Guyana. Now, with the promise of a new dawn, they are drawn back, eager to witness the transformation first hand.

Acclaimed author of The Domino Masters of Demerara, Khalil Rahman Ali invites you to re-join a beloved group of Guyanese as they return to their homeland; a land transformed. Once rivals on the domino tables of their youth, and now united by a shared curiosity, they embark on an unforgettable adventure through the heart of a Guyana on the cusp of profound change.

Since the seismic discovery of oil in 2015, whispers of incredible development have echoed across the globe. But what is the reality behind the headlines? Armed with his meticulously compiled notebook, Michael serves as their insightful guide, offering a running commentary that blends historical facts with personal anecdotes.

More than just a travelogue, Guyana on the Rise is a deeply personal exploration of identity, heritage and the enduring bonds of friendship. Each character grapples with their own expectations, confronting the shadows of Guyana's past while embracing the dazzling possibilities of its future. Through their eyes, you will witness a nation navigating its new-found wealth, striving to overcome historical challenges and charting a course towards a brighter tomorrow.

Will their homecoming confirm their hopes? Will they find a Guyana they recognise, or a nation irrevocably altered? Embark on a voyage of discovery and witness the soul of a nation as it stands on the precipice of change.

Guyana on the Rise is a captivating tale of friendship, heritage and the enduring spirit of a land poised for greatness.
