Excerpt from The Siamese Cat
The siamese cat bour turmoil of junks and launches to the brick red hills beyond Kowloon, and said: I'll bet her aunts were from New England. He laughed, remembering their prim, cool glances. And she herself had been dressed in blue and white things.
What nonsense! Back to work, hammering at the keyboard in my opinion, therefore, best to sacrifice a little of H. K. Pro fits and get a bigger start in the provinces, with more of the following chops: 'dragon-pearl,' 'long Life,' 'monkey-bird' He ticked manfully onward.
Again by chance: on a steamer bound for Saigon, as he stepped out of his bath, a roll threw him plump against a burly man in a green silk kimono.

Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This gripping adventure novel follows American businessman, Owen Scarlett, through confusing and mysterious events after accepting a seemingly innocuous assignment in the Orient. The author's vivid descriptions of 19th century Southeast Asia create a backdrop of unfamiliar sights, sounds, and smells against which Owen's increasingly peculiar and dangerous experiences play out. What begins as an errand with personal motives quickly spirals into a complex chase with unknown adversaries. While the novel mainly addresses the themes of colonialism, fate, and the corrupting power of greed, its greatest strength lies in the character of Owen. He is a complicated man of great integrity yet reckless abandon. His chance encounters with other travelers and his interactions with the native people shape his experience as he struggles to uncover the truth behind a series of bewildering events. This book offers readers an exciting and thought-provoking tale that will transport them to a world both strange and familiar.
