Jerusalem

Angebote / Angebote:

Extraordinary, ambitious, bitingly, laugh-out-loud satirical . . . quite simply, a must-read' Daily Mail'Wildly inventive, funny and superbly original' The Times'He looks like a Brit, this guy. Full of good intentions and bad ideas.'Straddling two continents and three generations, Patrick Neate's Jerusalem is a sweeping and hilarious epic of English misadventure, both at home and abroad. It features a self-serving MP lost and alone in an African dictatorship, a young, ultra-hip entrepreneur looking for something (or someone) new to exploit and an English Boer War veteran determined to save England from itself. With a host of other brilliant and brilliantly drawn characters, this is the funniest and most moving story of Englishness as it never was, isn't now and, hopefully, will never be.'Funny and exciting, Neate is never less than vivid, whether describing the hideous conditions of an African prison, or a run-down pub in London. Excellent' Daily Telegraph'A corrosive and blistering satire on colonialism and an eloquent, angry and relevant novel that speaks its own truth to power' Sunday Telegraph'A multi-layered, jam-packed and often satirical novel rich in ideas and argument. Neate's most inventive book to date . . . invites comparisons with David Mitchell's genre-busting Cloud Atlas' Guardian'Wonderful, impressive, fascinating. Neate is always an engaging and sharp writer' Independent on Sunday
