The characters in Exile are complex and well-developed. Jeppe is a flawed but sympathetic protagonist, and his journey is one that readers will relate to. He is a man who is searching for meaning and belonging, and he is willing to go to great lengths to find it.

Along the way, Jeppe meets a cast of characters who challenge his assumptions about himself and the world. There is Amina, a young Egyptian woman who is struggling to find her place in a changing society. There is Musa, a Sudanese refugee who has lost everything in the war. And there is Hassan, a Somali pirate who is haunted by the violence he has witnessed.

These characters are all victims of the violence and suffering that has plagued Africa, but they are also survivors. They are strong and resilient, and they have never given up hope.
