A hundred and fifty years ago, a young Englishman, Gideon Barr, founded a private raj on the coast of Borneo. The world he created eventually encompassed a territory the size of England. This is the story of Victorian social conventions superimposed on one of the most violent cultures on earth, and of a remarkable tribe of fugitives, missionaries and romantics drawn to this remote outpost of the world. And in the tale of the white rajah, Gideon Barr, and his young wife Amelia, Kalimantaan reveals a love story as exotic and extraordinary as anything in Marquez or Kipling.
'A mesmerising story, beautifully told.'
Observer

'Adventure and the exotic seep through the pages of Kalimantaan like luscious juices.'
