Dr Ruth Desouza - Sr Research Fellow, New Zealand

Just wanted to say a big thank you for the beautiful book about the experiences of Goans in the Diaspora, I was reading it while camped out a remote Maori land spot without water or electricity and so could really focus on the work. I wanted to thank you both  (FN because you sent me the book and you do so much tirelessly for the Goan community) and Selma for the huge labour of love this must have been for you. Having being born in Africa and now resident in NZ, it was lovely to fill in all the blanks in my own store of knowledge about Goan history in the Middle East for example.
Thanks so much for a very precious and important book!
