Marabastad Asiatic Bazaar

My original intention was to write about the Cape Boys Location and Marabastad as well as the Asiatic Bazaar and to call my book “Memories of Marabastad,” but people who once lived in the Cape Location and Marabastad are writing or have written about these places and as their accounts would be more authentic, I decided, to confine myself to the Asiatic Bazaar. Once I began my research, I realised that just this one location offers a range of human experience that goes far beyond my capacity to capture it all. This book, therefore, is only a small record of life in the Asiatic Bazaar. Many more wonderful stories are still to be told.
