In The Slain Wood, William Boyd chronicles the dramatic growth of the pulp...

Morgan Leafy isn't overburdened with worldly success. Actually, he is refreshingly free from it. But then, as a representative of Her Britannic Majesty in tropical Kinjanja, it was not very constructive of him to get involved in wholesale bribery.

Falling back on his deep-laid reserves of misanthropy and guile, Morgan has to fight off the sea of humiliation,...

Henderson could never shed enough inhibitions to become just another weirdo. Or could he? This hilarious fish-out-of-water comedy, which Boyd also adapted for screen for the 1980s film starring Daniel Day Lewis, was described in the Guardian as, 'Splittingly shrewd and engaging ... with an extra and uneasy little something...

Hoffnungslos verfängt er sich in den Fallstricken der korrupten Lokalpolitik, und die zarte Romanze mit Priscilla, der Tochter seines Chefs, endet, bevor sie angefangen hat. Als dann noch eine Leiche auftaucht, die er partout nicht...
