Poised on the margin between fact and fiction, this account of the life of a boy born in Singapore in 1940 to British/Eurasian parents includes both background historical material and highly personalised discussions of Singapore and its recent past. The accounts of life in Japanese internment, in the Home and boarding school where he went subsequently, in the shady world of secret societies, racial pressures and confusions of the 1950s and 60s all offer many unusual and highly coloured - and often non-PC - slants onto events.
