Description
Alan Noland discovers his father's memoirs and learns the truth about the violent man he despised. In this unsparing family history, Alan distils his father's life in the Dutch East Indies into one furious utterance.
As he reads his father's story, Alan begins to understand how war transformed him into the monster he knew. Birney exposes a crucial chapter in Dutch and European history that was deliberately concealed behind the ideological facade of postwar optimism.
This superb novel will leave a lasting impression on readers, reverberating long after they finish reading it.
