paperback The literal symptoms of moral dilemmas, Peake carves his way around the island of Sark and jaunts Mr Pye through his maze of brambled descriptive writing. Mervyn at his subtle comic best, a pleasant read and Mr Pye himself could have been a character easily plucked from a Brecht or Dickens novel, so well tailored is he.

Equipped with love, Mr Harold Pye lands on the island of Sark, his mission to convert the islanders into a crusading force for the undiluted goodness that he feels within. The extraordinary inhabitants of the island range fromthe formidable Miss George in her purple busby to the wanton, raven-haired Tintagieu, 'five foot three inches of sex'. Mr Pye, however, is prone to excess and in the increasingly personalised struggle between good and evil, excess is very nearly his downfall. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
