“A fast-moving and wonderfully funny (I laughed aloud a lot) vigorous and intelligent tale of an innocent abroad.” Fay Weldon

Felix Radstock is plucked from his humdrum job and dispatched to the forbidden rainforest of Guyana on a mysterious assignment. Only later does he discover the true purpose of his mission.

 Set in 1999, Down In Demerara is a funny, charming and quirky tale of self-realisation through love, friendship and fear.

 Mike Manson is the author of Where’s My Money (Tangent Books) chosen by BBC TV as one of their Books That Made Britain.
