Moses Ascending
Autor Sam Selvonen Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 aug 2020
Soon a Black Power group take over the basement, headed by the indomitable - but very sexy - Brenda, and an illegal people-smuggling ring is discovered upstairs. Not to mention harassment from racist police, sheep-slaughtering in the back yard and a Black Panther (the human kind) on the loose.
Will Moses' elaborately constructed castle in the air be demolished by these unruly forces?
Following the fortunes of characters from Selvon's The Lonely Londoners, Moses Ascending is a hilarious and telling depiction of 1970s Britain.
