Más información sobre el libro

Set against the backdrop of global protests in 1968, the story follows Jack Muir, a reluctant employee of the Colonial Bank of Australia, as he navigates life in Papua New Guinea. Confronted by the raw and sensuous reality of island life, Jack grapples with his own failures and the brutal dynamics of colonialism. This sequel to Boy on a Wire explores the complex distinction between freedom and the darker impulses it can evoke in individuals and society.
