I really enjoyed this short novel about Moses moving from tenant to landlord and trying to write his memoirs, instead getting involved in human trafficking and the Black Panther/Power movement in the 1970s London. Funny and interesting. ( ) Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Moses thinks he's got it made. Originally a poor Caribbean immigrant, he is now the proud landlord of a ramshackle house in Shepherd's Bush, London. He has visions of being master of his own domain, writing his memoirs while his trusty sidekick and handyman, Bob, does all the work. But Moses's problems are far from over . . . Soon a Black Power group take over the basement, headed by the indomitable, but very sexy Brenda, and an illegal people-smuggling ring is discovered upstairs. Not to mention harassment from racist police, sheep-slaughtering in the back yard and a Black Panther (the human kind) on the loose. Will Moses's elaborately constructed castle in the air be demolished by these unruly forces? Following the fortunes of characters from Selvon's The Lonely Londoners, Moses Ascendingis a hilarious and telling depiction of 1970s Britain. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
