Description:
In the exotic stories of Paul Bowles, disquieting Western influences are floating like oil on the ancient, enigmatic waters of North African culture.
Strange relationships are cemented – and severed – by sexual perversion and drug hallucination; racial antagonism is fuelled by superstition; and justice and its dark counterpart, revenge, stalk uneasy environments. With each story, Bowles creates a powerful, chilling sense of tension, mounting towards a violent or syunningly incisive climax.
"A superb storyteller. A unique trader in African Gothic. Like Virgil and Dante before him, he has the common compassion to go to hell with the children of his imagination" –Life Magazine
"Pages from Cold Point", a seduction of a father by a son, is one of the best stories ever written by anyone" –Norman Mailer
