Softcover. Etat : leichte Gebrauchsspuren. This third novel in the trilogy that began with The Football Factory looks at notions of what it means to be English abroad. King explores stereotypes of language and nationalism, as he writes about sex and violence abroad, under the Union Jack. Mass market paperback edition of this final book in the loose trilogy begun with )The Football Factory( and continued in )Headhunters(. A powerful and uncompromising novel which explores notions of Englishness, sterotypical ideas of language and nationalism, and the primal instincts of lust and aggression. A skilfully constructed piece of work, which builds to the hectic climax of the aftermath of a Germany v England match in Berlin, as the rival fans take to the streets. Mai 1999 In deutscher Sprache. 282 pages. 20 cm.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Roy Strang is engaged in a strange quest in a surrealist South Africa. His mission is to eradicate an evil predator-scavenger bird, the marabou stork, before it drives away the peace-loving flamingo from the picturesque Lake Torto. But behind this world lies another: the world of Roy's bizarre family, the Scottish housing scheme in which he grew up, his mundane job, a disastrous emigration to Africa, and his youthful life of brutality with a gang of soccer casuals. As one world crashes into the other, this potentially charming story of ornithological goodwill mutates into a filthy tale of violence, abuse and redemption. 288 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - With a novelist's eye for detail and colour, Gita Mehta writes of the continent of contradictions that is host to one-sixth of the world's population. The world's largest democracy, it still practices the caste system. It's a burgeoning economic superpower, and one of the poorest nations on earth. It has the world's largest film industry, and the world's oldest religions. It is an ancient civilisation celebrating fifty years as a modern nation, entering a new international order many believe will belong to China and India. Now as never before, the world wants to know what contemporary India is all about.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - At the far end of the long white gallery is a painting of a woman, in pale flowing clothes and lying on a sofa beside an open window. The muslin curtains billow out towards her like clouds. There is a touch of brilliant red, the ribbon on her hat. The rest is white, cream, palest grey. It is a painting which leads Flora on, beckoning her away from her childhood, her complaining, clinging mother, pert younger sister, and the confines of a small community, to a proud and self-reliant future. But later, this image is to prove the catalyst for the most signicant event in her life. Isolation, separation, solitude, betrayal. The shocks of life. The consolations and the beauty of death. A few piercing moments of absolute joy and perfect understanding. THE SERVICE OF CLOUDS is about these things, and also about love, loyalty, friendship, growing up and growing old.
