About the Author

Pascal Khoo-thwe was born in 1968 in a remote part of Burma. How he developed a passion for English literature (specifically, James Joyce), became involved in the student resistance to savage military repression, escaped to Thailand and won an English degree at Cambridge University is the story of this remarkable book.

Reviews

'Deserves to become a Wild Swans of this new century.' Caroline Moore, Spectator 'More than the record of an astonishing life, this book is a work of art' Mark Archer, Financial Times 'Exceptional...In parts it is a thrilling and fascinating page-turner. In others, it fills one with respectful awe at the resilience and determination of a young man to fight despair and never lose hope' Martin Booth, Sunday Times 'Extraordinary...remarkable. A marvellous book, full of pity, yearning and wisdom; stirring and terrible in equal measure. I commend it wholeheartedly' John Preston, Sunday Telegraph 'Extraordinary...thrilling' Val Hennessy, Daily Mail 'Extraordinary...Beautiful. A magical story, full of richness and subtlety' Craig Brown, Mail on Sunday
