==Plot summary==
The novel is a saga about four generations of the Eurasian Rosario family, who have Malay and Portuguese blood in them. ("Rosario" is Portuguese for "rosary", or ''rosa'', i.e., "rose" and ''rio'', i.e. "river", which form the title.)〔Wong, Alan. "Under the Pear Tree", ''The Star'', November 13, 2011. http://thestar.com.my/lifestyle/story.asp?file=/2011/11/13/lifebookshelf/9774312. Retrieved April 4, 2013.〕 It follows the exploits of Alfonso Rosario, an illiterate fisherman born in 1870 who was later promoted to be the Regidor of a Malayan village. The novel then moves on to his grandchildren Antonio and Philippa, who shift from Malacca to Singapore. Finally it ends in 1966–7, when his great-grandson Ignatius Rosario enrolls in the country's first junior college and is then enlisted into the first intake of Singapore's military National Service. Some characters from his earlier novels re-appear as minor characters in this instalment, for example Vicky Viera from ''Island in the Centre'', and Gus Perera and Ah Keh from ''People of the Pear Tree''.
