From the laughter in his grandfather's yard to the enduring stories of his Indo-Fijian ancestors, Richie Raj brings to life a family and a culture determined to endure. Eppari Tata traces his journey from the colonial legacy of Fiji to life in Aotearoa (NZ), where family, heritage, and the challenges of building a new life shaped a story of courage, strength, and discovery.

Blending humour, heart, and history, it celebrates how identity, culture, and family ties survive across oceans, weaving a rich tapestry that continues to shape generations. Honouring the past while lighting the path forward, this unforgettable memoir will resonate with anyone who has ever wondered where they truly come from-and what they must never forget.

Raj, Richard: - Born in Fiji and now living in Auckland, Richie Raj is an engineering surveyor who has spent a lifetime measuring-but Eppari Tata: In the Shadow of Empire marks his attempt to measure something far deeper: the distance between past and present, and the ties that hold families together. A proud descendant of the girmitiyas, Richie writes with honesty, warmth, and a touch of humour about the people and places that shaped him. He believes every family has its storytellers-and he just happened to be one who finally put it on paper. This memoir is his heartfelt tribute to the laughter, lessons, and love that continue to guide him.
