About TaleZip
A modern Chagossian oral historian returns to Diego Garcia before the 1965 territorial separation and prepares a fictional family's archive and mutual support network for the upheaval ahead. Detachment and later expulsions are historical; characters, recordings, school, and individual outcomes are fictional. The story does not portray Chagos as uninhabited or celebrate displacement.
