Product Description
Alms For Oblivion Volume II
Author: Simon Raven
Format: Paperback
'Each of the novels in Alms for Oblivion is an elegant morality tale, beautifully composed, sparkling with appreciation of the sheer limitless variety of human wickedness' — TLS
Simon Raven's sequence of colourful and funny novels about the English upper-class misbehaving continues against a backdrop of intrigue in Athens, radicalism in Cambridge, turmoil in India and movie-making in Corfu. Dazzlingly witty and thoroughly depraved, Raven's world is also a dark mirror to our times - one that is sure to make you blush, shriek, laugh out loud and always read on.
Volume 2: The Judas Boy, Places Where they Sing, Sound the Retreat and Come Like Shadows
'The Alms for Oblivion series steers its way its stylish course somewhere between Fleming and Waugh' — Guardian
