"Not Out of Hate" is the first Burmese novel to be translated into
English and published outside of Myanmar. It offers unusual
insights into the social history of the late colonial period. Set
in pre-World War II Burmese society, the story centers on the
relationship and marriage of seventeen-year-old Way Way with U Saw
Han, a much older Burmese agent for a British trading company. The
subtle but deep misunderstandings they experience mirror the
cultural confrontation of Eastern and Western values in modern
society, still evident in Burmese life today. The work is also a
poignant and pointed commentary on a young woman's struggle against
a suffocating love.
